Château Fourcas-Dumont, Listrac-Médoc, Bordeaux, France 2003

50% of Merlot, 40% of Cabernet Sauvignon, and 10% of Petit Verdot. Merlot gives fullness, fruitiness and flexibility to the wines, Cabernet Sauvignon gives them body, brilliance as well as a good ageing potential, and finally, Petit Verdot reinforces the wine's colour, structure and the richness of its tannins. Ideal with: an autumn picnic or a bonfire.
