La Vieille Cure 2021
Château La Vieille Cure
Fronsac, Bordeaux
Château La Vieille Cure is one of the great overachievers of the Right Bank, offering power, polish, and serious aging potential at a fraction of the cost of its Pomerol and Saint-Émilion neighbours. Located on the limestone plateau of Fronsac, this historic estate—dating back to the 18th century—has seen a dramatic rise in quality over the last two decades.
The wine is typically a blend dominated by Merlot, with Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon bringing structure and aromatic lift. It’s rich, dark-fruited, and full-bodied, with notes of blackberry, graphite, baking spice, and mocha, all wrapped in velvety tannins and framed by a mineral edge from the limestone soils.
Modern in style but still deeply rooted in terroir, La Vieille Cure delivers exceptional value and class—easily standing toe-to-toe with wines at twice the price from more famous appellations. A cellar-worthy sleeper from an insider’s region.
