Description

Classified as a Cru Bourgeois in 1932, Fourcas-Hosten is arguably the finest producer in Listrac, one of the 6 village wine appellations of the Haut Médoc. From 1971 to 2006 it was owned by Schröder & Schÿler, the Bordeaux négociant firm that also owns Château Kirwan.

The property consists of a château in the centre of the village of Listrac , where the vineyard soil is clay and limestone, and a gravel plot in Fourcas, a nearby hamlet.

There are 47 hectares of vines.They vines Merlot, largely confined to the clay soils, whereas the gravel is favoured by the two Cabernets, with Cabernet Sauvignon covering 23 hectares and 2 hectares of Cabernet Franc.

The wine is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc.

1966 was a very good vintage generally classed as the second best of the 60's (after 1961!)
