The Fourcas Hosten 2000 is a red Bordeaux wine from the Listrac-Médoc appellation, a Cru Bourgeois estate with a history dating back to the 19th century. This vintage is composed of 50% Merlot, 45% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc, reflecting the estate`s focus on blending. The vineyards, spanning 46 hectares, benefit from a mix of clay-limestone and gravel soils. The wine reveals notes of dark fruits, alongside a firm spine of tannins and a restrained acidity, indicative of its structured character and potential for ageing.

Vinous
Good ruby color. Slightly stunted aromas of black fruits, licorice and eucalyptus. Inky and withdrawn, with the licorice quality carrying through in the mouth. A rather dry style, and not yet displaying much flavor interest or personality.Stephen Tanzer1st May 2001
