The 2019 de la Dauphine has a superb nose with pure blackberry, boysenberry and crushed stone aromas, hints of iris and violet emerging with time. The palate is well balanced with crisp acidity, grainy tannins, fine depth and an unerring sense of symmetry on the finish. Yet another great Fronsac.

Cassis, violets, spicy oak, and wildflower notes all emerge from the 2019 Château La Dauphine, a medium-bodied beauty with a wonderful sense of purity and elegance, good acidity, and outstanding length. It's not massive but shows the finesse and balance of the 2019 vintage. Rating: 90-92 Jeb Dunnuck, www.jebdunnuck.com (Jun 2020)
La Dauphine continues its strong showing of the past few vintages here. Absolutely packed full of blackberry and cassis fruits, clear salinity and slate minerality on the finish, juicy and well held together, giving plenty of personality but still managing to convey that it's holding stuff back for future development. A yield of 40h/ha. Certified organic, aged in 30% new oak. Rating: 92 Jane Anson, Decanter (May 2020)
This is a solid, structured red with blackberry and licorice aromas and flavors. Full-bodied with chewy tannins and a rich finish. Really well framed and structured. Rating: 92-93 James Suckling, www.jamessuckling.com (May 2020)
