CHÂTEAU LES TROIS CROIX

2017 Fronsac

EN PRIMEUR

Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2017 Les Trois Croix has a very pretty nose of rose hip tea, lavender and lilacs over a core of red and black currants plus a waft of underbrush. Medium-bodied, it possesses soft, plush tannins in the mouth with great freshness and a mineral accent on the finish. Rating: 88-90 Lisa Perrotti-Brown, RobertParker.com (Apr 2018)

A hidden gem, the 2017 Château Les Trois Croix sports a deep purple color as well as a classic bouquet of crème de cassis, black raspberries, toasted spices, and an undeniable minerality. This medium-bodied, ripe, beautifully textured 2017 has plenty of fruit, notable balance, and a charming style that’s going to allow it drink nicely for 8-10 years.
