Note di degustazione
Ripe darker fruits, tobacco leaf, sappy spring flowers, and a kiss of background chocolate all emerge from the 2023 Château De La Dauphine, a beautiful Fronsac with a pure, layered, graceful mouthfeel, polished tannins, and outstanding length. It's medium-bodied on the palate and is an outstanding wine that should drink well over the coming decade or more. Drink 2026-2038.

The 2023 La Dauphine is very fine. Blackberry, crème de cassis, lavender, licorice and dark chocolate are front and center. In 2023, La Dauphine is not quite as powerful as it can be, and yet its balance is terrific. Floral top notes and clean mineral notes lift the finish nicely.
The 2023 Château de La Dauphine has a refined and focused bouquet with blackberry, briar and light tobacco scents. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, fine acidity, fresh blackberry and wild strawberry fruit laced with cedar and, again, tobacco toward the finish. Delightful.
The 2023 Château La Dauphine is terrific, with ripe red, blue, and black fruits as well as some obvious minerality and graphite notes. This rich, medium to full-bodied, round, wonderfully polished Fronsac will have 10-12 years of prime drinking, if not longer. This is a terrific estate in Fronsac that deserves to be on every reader's radar.
