Chateau la Vieille Cure, Fronsac, 2018
Château La Vieille Cure’s 2018 is a standout example of how good Fronsac can be—especially in a blockbuster vintage like this. Made from mostly Merlot with supporting roles from Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, this is a dark, rich, and beautifully balanced Right Bank red.
The nose leads with blackberry, plum, mocha, and cedar. On the palate, it’s bold and layered, with velvety tannins and a deep mineral core. The oak is well integrated, lending spice and structure without overshadowing the fruit. There's enough polish to impress now, and enough grip to age gracefully for another decade.
This is Right Bank Bordeaux that punches well above its price tag—serious wine from an under-the-radar estate.
Perfect for: grilled meats, short ribs, aged cheeses, or showing off your Bordeaux savvy without opening your first growths.
