Lot #939. La Vieille Cure 2003

Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Region: France, Bordeaux, Fronsac.
Score: 92 RP.
The following sleeper of the vintage strongly suggests that La Vieille Cure is becoming one of Fronsac’s two or three finest estates. The finest wine yet made at La Vieille Cure, the 2003 should be on the shopping lists of consumers seeking tremendous quality/price rapport. Its dense ruby/purple color is followed by sweet aromas of scorched earth, black raspberries, creme de cassis, and notions of cherries, smoke, and crushed rocks. This big, full-bodied, dense, captivating wine is structured as well as exceptionally long. Wine Advocate #164, Apr 2006
Lot Location: Orange County
