On the nose, Fourcas Borie 2010 showcases aromas of blackcurrant and plum, intertwined with earthy undertones and subtle oak. The palate reveals a medium body with flavors of dark fruit, a touch of tobacco, and notes of graphite. Tannins are present but well-integrated, providing structure without overwhelming the fruit. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot. This vintage reflects a warm growing season, producing a wine that balances ripeness with acidity. Its aging potential is notable, with the wine expected to develop further complexity with time in the bottle.
