Jancis Robinson 16.5/20 points!
"Dark purple velvety look. Rather simple ripe red fruits on the nose but on the palate it is clear that there is very competent oaking and a nice fresh mouthful. Certainly perfectly respectable glass of claret. Appetising, dry finish and nothing overdone. Complete."
Jancis Robinson, 2006
"Deep ruby/plum/purple, with more sweetness to its fruit than normal, the 2005 Fourcas Hosten displays minerality, earth, spice, blackcurrants, and touches of oak and forest notes. This medium-bodied wine should continue to drink well for at least a decade or more."
Robert Parker, 2015
