Fronsac

Fronsac is no longer the poor cousin to its grander neighbours Pomerol and Saint Emilion, where it lost huge market share through lack of global marketing. Investment is now fivefold as producers look for the next opportunity and La Dauphine and Moulin Haut Laroque confirm the excellence in this region in 2023.

Release date: 24/5/2024

This is a blend of 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, picked at a yield of 42 hl/ha, a good result on these organic and biodynamic vineyards.

Plenty of sweet fruit character on the nose, blackberry, blackcurrants, roses and violets, very pure and expressive, and clearly leading with well-defined and floral fruit. The palate shows the same charm, with good fruit here combined with more savoury nuances, supple dark fruits wrapped in coffee bean and toast, underneath which there hides a beautiful core of ripe and nicely knit tannins, working within rather than against the wine. This is another fine vintage from the team at La Dauphine. Rating: 92-94 Chris Kissack, www.thewinedoctor.com (Apr 2024)
