Château Fourcas-Hosten 2010 Barrel sample Red (Listrac-Médoc)
- Online Exclusive
89-91 Big, bold, tannic wine, the dry core of tannins leavened by the black currant juice acidity. There is some extraction and a strong wood element, although the wine does profit from its freshness.

Château Fourcas-Hosten 2012 Barrel sample Red (Listrac-Médoc)
- Online Exclusive
89–91. Barrel sample. This is a perfumed wine with new-wood aromas that lend a strongly woody character. The wood buries much of the fruit at the moment, resulting in a hard and dry aftertaste.

Château Fourcas-Hosten 2005 Red (Listrac-Médoc)
- Cellar Selection
- $25
Still young, with its dry tannins, this is a wine that has developed depth and concentration over the last 3-4 years. It has power, the berry fruits driving through the structure to give a layered, attractive, serious finish.

Château Fourcas-Hosten 2004 Red (Listrac-Médoc)
Solid fruits and tannins, a judicious use of new wood and some fresh fruits are all in this easy, attractive wine that is already aging well. Drink now or over five years.

Château Fourcas-Hosten 2003 Red (Listrac-Médoc)
- $25
The hot, overweight 2003 vintage has not been kind to this licorice- and dark chocolate-flavored wine. It is dry, firm, while still garishly rich. If you have it, drink it now.
