Jeb Dunnuck (90-92)Made from 93% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc, the 2017 Château Fonroque has a beautifully complex nose of Christmas spice, fruit cake, sweet oak, and beautifully ripe red and black fruits. With medium to full-bodied richness, a rounded, seductive texture, and sweet tannin, it's an impressive 2017 that should easily end up being an outstanding wine. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (87)The 2017 Fourcas Hosten is admittedly a bit of a comedown after the high point of the previous vintage. This is much more introverted and earthy on the nose, missing the fruité of the 2016. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly coarse tannins and modest depth, but as before, I still find the finish rather dry. |

Richly layered and boasting the allure of a fine white Bordeaux, the Fourcas Hosten Blanc 2017 encapsulates the quintessence of French winemaking heritage. Produced by Château Fourcas Hosten, a revered vineyard in the heart of Listrac-Médoc, this remarkable vintage reflects its history and distinguished terroir. A blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon, it's aged delicately in French oak barrels, resonating a well-rounded complexity. An expressive bouquet of ripe citrus fruits, fresh herbs and a sea-salt undertone lend to its charm, while a nuanced palate of bright, crisp acidity and buttery smoothness elevate its refined finish. All these gustatory elements are harmoniously integrated to exemplify the charisma of Fourcas Hosten Blanc 2017, making it highly sought-after by fine wine enthusiasts globally. Exemplary on its own or as an augmenter of a culinary journey, this vino truly presents an authentic taste of Bordeaux's leisured elegance at its best. |

Decanter (95)Soft and a touch earth on the attack but pulls itself together to show firmly in-control tannins. There is a natural austerity offset by a clear punch of redcurrant, raspberry and autumnal fruits. Good freshness, softened by smoked cedar on the finish. Reminds me of an early stage 2011, and this wine in 2017 seems set to age just as gracefully in the end. |

Vinous - Antonio Galloni (94)The 2017 Gloria is just as delicious from bottle as it was from barrel. A rush of bright red cherry and plum fruit, blood orange, iron, dried flowers and mint gives the 2017 its sense of energy. Medium in body and full of character, Gloria is one of the highlights of the vintage. Don't miss it. Tasted two times. |

Bordeaux | 6 | 92 (VN (NM)) | HK$1,545.00 | |||||
Vinous - Neal Martin (92)The 2017 Grand Mayne has an attractive bouquet with red cherries, wild strawberry and blackcurrant, hints of humidor and clove emerging with time. There is clearly impressive intensity here in the context of the growing season. The palate is well balanced with fine tannins. There is superb freshness and cohesion with supple, lithe red berry fruit mixed with white pepper and bay leaf on the finish. This is an excellent wine from Jean-Antoine Nony and his team. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (90)The 2017 Grand Tayac has a bold bouquet with vigorous blackberry, wild strawberry and crushed rose petal aromas - aromatics that do not hold back! The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannins. Perhaps the oak comes across a little too much on the finish, but there is good structure with an appealing velvety finish. Very fine. |

Bordeaux | 2 | 89 (VN (NM)) | HK$1,200.00 | |||||
Vinous - Neal Martin (89)The 2017 Grand Village comes mainly from the clay-limestone plateau that survived the frost that reduced production to only 9% of normal. "We were hit quite badly with frost in 2017 but we found by June that some vines were acting weird" Omri Ram told me when I visited Lafleur. "So we pruned back very early to help the vines get back into shape." It has a potent bouquet with mulberry, lavender and hoisin aromas. The floral aspect becomes stronger and stronger with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with slightly hard tannins on the entry, quite spicy and a little chewier than recent vintages. Slightly bitter towards the finish with a strong black pepper note on the aftertaste. There is in fact, less Grand Village than Lafleur this year! |

Decanter (94)These guys often over-deliver in challenging years, and have done so yet again. As you would expect in a vintage that has produced such an excellent Lacoste Borie, this GPL is exceptional, a real success that's juicy and carefully extracted. It has weight and impact, with a Pauillac tannic hold and presence. It's one of my wines of the vintage, and a must buy. The balanced, sculpted, juicy black fruits fully deliver personality and signature style. Harvested 15-29 September, yielding 45hl/ha. 80% new oak. |

Jeb Dunnuck (91)The second wine of Haut-Batailley, the 2017 Chateau Haut-Batailley Verso is a blend of 60/40 Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot aged in used barrels. It has lots of juicy cherry and cassis notes as well as lots of tobacco and cedary herbs, medium body, juicy acidity, light tannins, and a clean, classy finish. It's a classy second wine I'd be happy to drink any time over the coming 10-12 years. |

James Suckling (98)This is extremely aromatic and perfumed with crushed-berry, flower, currant and orange-peel character. Full-bodied, very tight and focused with fabulous depth and density that brings you down through the wine. Deep and serious. Very classic wine that reminds me of top Haut-Brions of the mid-1980s. Try after 2025. |
