Château Fourcas-Borie - JancisRobinson.com				Jul-2019
Review “Deep cherry red. Lively cassis nose, open and vibrant and just a little bit leafy in a good way. Lots of fruit up front with a touch of chocolate on the finish. Not especially long but rounded and fruity. Tannins are still a little firm for drinking now but all in balance.” (16.5 out of 20 points)
Château Fourcas-Borie - JancisRobinson.com	Listrac-Médoc	2015		Jul-2019
Review “Mid cherry red. Scented black fruits and just a hint of violets. Firm, juicy and with better balance of freshness and fruit than some 2015s. Still quite chewy but getting there.” (16 out of 20 points)
Château Fourcas-Borie - Jeb Dunnuck			92	May-2019
Review “Another brilliant Listrac from the talented Bruno Borie, the 2018 Château Fourcas-Borie checks in as 77% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, and the rest Petit Verdot, all from more clay and limestone soils (which is different from the Ducluzeau Listrac release from Borie). It offers more elegance and purity, with pretty notes of wild strawberries, black raspberries, white flowers, and graphite. Medium to full-bodied, elegant, and seamless on the palate, it’s another terrific wine that’s ideal for drinking over the coming decade.”

Review “My money is on the 2016 Château Fourcas-Borie being the wine of the vintage in Listrac, It’s rare to find a Listrac with this level of depth and richness. Smoking notes of blackcurrants, black cherries, and graphite all emerge from this medium-bodied effort that has terrific mid-palate concentration, ripe tannins, and a brilliant finish. Want to taste the best from Listrac? Buy this wine.”
Château Fourcas-Borie - Jamessuckling.com			91	Feb-2019
Review “A bright array of wild red fruit on the nose, as well as cassis and tobacco, leading to the palate that has a fresh dark fruit core with the 15 percent petit verdot adding grip at the punchy finish.”
Château Fourcas-Borie - Vinous			92	Jan-2019
Review “The 2016 Fourcas-Borie has a more floral bouquet than its stablemate Ducluzeau, presenting a mixture of red and black fruit tinged with peony and incense. The palate is underpinned by fine tannin and a beautiful bead of acidity. This feels linear and quite grippy in the mouth, and the graphite-tinged finish lingers nicely. Superb.”
Château Fourcas-Borie - Wine Advocate				Apr-2018
Review “Blended of 75% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon and 9% Petit Verdot, the medium garnet-purple colored 2017 Fourcas-Borie has a lovely floral nose of violets and lavender with a core of crushed raspberries, blackberries and cassis plus a waft of underbrush. The palate is medium-bodied, chewy and lively with earthy layers and an herbal lift on the finish.” (87-89 Points)
Château Fourcas-Borie - Wine Enthusiast				Apr-2018
Review "A fine balance between tannins and ripe blackcurrant fruit gives this wine its structure and immediate pleasure. It is already a very drinkable wine, with fine fruits and ripe tannins.” (Barrel Sample) (89-91 points)
Château Fourcas-Borie - Jamessuckling.com				Apr-2018
Review “This is firm and silky with a pretty tannin and dark fruit, terracotta character. Medium body. Straight forward finish.” (90-91 points)
Château Fourcas-Borie - Wine Spectator	Listrac-Médoc	2015	90	Mar-2018
Review “Lovely raspberry and plum fruit races along, flecked liberally with anise and singed mesquite notes. Has a plush edge, revealing a tug of wet earth at the very end.”
