Sporting a layer of gravel over chalky limestone and clay, the vineyards in the commune of Listrac are totally landlocked. No other appellation in Bordeaux is further away from an ocean or river. The wines of Château Fourcas Dupré are textbook Listrac. Matured a year in barrel (1/3 new), they are mid-weight, with rustic fruit, an earthy core and ripe, dry tannins. KOSHER.
