Château La VIEILLE CURE
Red
- 2024 Futures
- Fronsac
Under the leadership of M. Thunevin (Valandraud), La Vieille Cure presents a more greedy and less square profile than before and reveals itself as one of Fronsac's major properties.
Vinous (A. Galloni): 89-91/100 "The 2024 La Vieille Cure is a fruity, delicate wine. Red cherry fruit, blood orange, spice, new leather and cedar all build nicely. This mid-weigh, supple Côtes de Castillon is a winner."
Vinous (N. Martin): 89-91/100 "The 2024 La Vieille Cure has a touch of reduction on the nose, though it is armed with ample red berry fruit and scents of wilted rose petal and orang pith. It just needs a little coaxing. The palate is well balanced with fine tannins, a little grainy in texture but I appreciate its cohesion on the finish. This is one to look for."
