Chateau La Vieille Cure Fronsac 2020

Château La Vieille Cure Fronsac 2020 is a distinguished red wine from the Fronsac appellation in Bordeaux, France. This region is renowned for producing wines that offer both concentration and elegance, benefiting from its clay-limestone soils and the expertise of its winemakers.

This wine is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon. The Merlot imparts richness and roundness, while the Cabernets contribute structure and complexity. The result is a wine that is both fine and robust, with an aromatic complexity that balances intensity with subtlety. 

The grapes are carefully selected and undergo traditional vinification methods. The wine is aged in oak barrels, which enhances its depth and imparts subtle notes of spice and tobacco. This aging process allows the wine to develop its full character, integrating the fruit and oak influences harmoniously.

The 2020 vintage presents a deep purple-black hue. On the nose, it offers black cherry, mocha, liquorice, plum, incense, and chocolate. The palate is medium to full-bodied, laden with bright, pure black fruit layers, framed by finely grained tannins and bold freshness. The finish is long and opulent, leaving a lasting impression.

This wine pairs excellently with grilled meats, roasted lamb, or a selection of mature cheeses. It also complements rich, savoury stews and game dishes.
