Château Fourcas Hosten 2010

Primeurs

Jancis Robinson

avril 2011

Note : 17/20

Blueish tinge. Amazing intense. Lifted and perfumed. Something a bit floral on the nose. Lots of zest and great structure plus masses of ripe fruit. More embryonic than some. Dry finish. Lots in reserve here. Lovely youthful wine. Real freshness. Drink 2020-2032


Jane Anson

Note : 92+

Darker velvety red than some of its neighbours. A more classic structure, with the whoosh of fruit, tannins and acidity. Good lenght, well balance, all in check, succesful. This bodes well for the new cellar and other investments recently carried out at this property. Drink 2018-2030


TAST - Bettane & Desseauve

avril 2011

Note : 16/20

Plus d’énergie et de matière dans les échantillons, beau fruit, assez long, raisin mûr, vin de qualité et réveil longtemps attendu de la propriété. On suivra avec beaucoup d’attention.


Le POINT - Jacques Dupont

mai 2011

Note : 15/20 COUP DE CŒUR

Cerise, Zan, bouche tendue, vive, serrée, belle matière un peu refermée aujourd’hui, joli fruit.


DECANTER

Note : 16/20

Good upfront fruit, better depth and more stylish than expected, recent investment has had good results. Drink 2014-2020


WINE ENTHUSIAST - Roger Voss

Note : 89-91

Big, bold, tannic wine. The dry core of tannins is leavened by black currant juice acidity. There is some extraction and a strong wood element, although the wine does profit from its freshness.


WINE PATRIOT

Note : 91-92

Nez sur le fruit, attaque ample, bouche volumineuse, belle densité.


JAMES SUCKLING

Note : 91-92

Fine depth on the nose. The palate is rich, yet disciplined, with good tannic grain. Fine.


MATTHEW JUKES

Note : 17/20


RENÉ GABRIEL

2010 est une des belles révélations du millésime, avec un vin intense, généreux et très soyeux. Une belle affaire.
