La Vieille Cure, Fronsac 2010 (1.5L) Piedmont A fine drink for enjoyingbase of neck or better; in original carton 92 points Wine Spectator This takes a modern approach, with a noticeable dose of dark, roasted espresso and chocolate up front, but remains grounded in the appellation's textbook racy chalk and charcoal profile. The core of lush fig, plum and blackberry fruit sits in reserve, and the finish is polished and long. Impressive. Best from 2015 through 2025. (JM) (3 2013) 91 points Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
