89 Points

Friday, November 7, 2014 - 13.0% - Double decanted/ Clear, med to deep garnet / clean, med intensity - cassis cream, ripe wild strawberry, pencil lead, cedar, cigar box, smoky / dry, med+ acidity, med body, med to high supple tannin, med+ intensity, med length. Classic Bordeaux, this is showing well and still has a couple of years to mature and gain in complexity.
We had this one next to a 05 Le Grand Vin from Osoyoos Larose from British Columbia. Both were as enjoyable on that night but the Fourcas Hosten will probably keep up for a little longer.
