2020 was the last vintage produced under Groupama ownership, as the estate was sold in April 2021 to Gerald Jicquel (the Beautiful Life Group , that also owns Fourcas-Dupré). While it is an attractive, smooth Haut-Médoc, it lacks a bit of concentration, especially if compared to some of its peers in this great vintage ( like the Barreyres 2020 I've tasted yesterday). But a nice drink in any case. Abv. 13%. — 6 months ago

Ten years in the bottle - and it's enough I suppose. A plum or plum jam, smoke, leather. Silky tannins, medium and pleasant acidity. — 7 months ago

2016 vintage. Second wine of Château d'Agassac, owned at the time by French insurance company Groupama (and since 2021 by Gerald Jiquel who also owns Fourcas-Dupré in Listrac). Hard to beat for value for money! Classic Haut-Médoc with impeccable balance.Abv. 13%. — 2 years ago

Might be one of my favorite Bordeauxs. Seemed to go well with everything and I always found myself going back for a refill. Definitely will have this one again. — 5 years ago

Oak, fruity, clove, nutmeg, anise. Vanilla. Creamy. Black fruits. Slightly tannic, but 9 years vintage, so relatively gentle. Good to drink. Château Fourcas Hosten Les Cedres d’ Hosten Listrac Medoc 16 @1800, F, 250704 — a year ago

2019 vintage. This seems to be a new wine by Saint-Julien cru classé Ducru-Beaucaillou, but not a word about this wine on their website. They do own 16 hectares of vineyards in Cussac, Haut-Médoc that were part of the vineyards at the time of the 1855 classification and therefore may be used for Ducru-Beaucaillou or Lalande-Borie, or can be used for a Haut-Medoc. To further complicate matters, this wine was bottled in Listrac, where they own Fourcas-Borie. Anyway, wherever the grapes come from, this is a very solid Haut-Médoc. According to a négiocant website it is a blend of 68% Merlot, 17% Cabernet Sauvignon, 13% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc, aged 12 months in barriques (20% new). Dark red with purplish rim. Black and red fruits, violeta, dark chocolate and a subtle smokey oak touch. A medium-bodied, elegant wine with impeccable balance and very good length. Very good value too at less than 20 euros .Abv. 14%. — 4 years ago
