James Suckling über den Chateau La Vieille Cure 2019 Fronsac:
11 Jan, 2022 – Vibrant nose of wild raspberries, brambleberries, lemon zest, thyme and sandalwood. It’s medium-to full-bodied with firm, tight-grained tannins and bright acidity. Vibrant and fragrant. Firm yet elegant finish. Drink after 2024.
Neal Martin (vinous) zum Chateau La Vieille Cure 2019 Fronsac:
The 2019 La Vieille Cure has a well-defined bouquet of lively blackberry, raspberry preserve and cedar aromas, very focused and displaying beautifully integrated oak. The palate is medium-bodied and sapid, with fine-grained tannins, and maybe a little lactic toward the finish, which reveals a smear of dark chocolate and fans out nicely on the aftertaste. An excellent Fronsac.
Jeb Dunnuck im April 2022:
A year-in, year-out best value, the 2019 Château La Vieille Cure is another winner from this château that does everything right. Revealing a deep ruby/purple hue as well as great aromatics of black cherries, tobacco leaf, spicy oak, and loamy earth, it's medium to full-bodied, perfectly balanced, has silky tannins, and a great finish. It's just an impeccably made, satisfying, classic Right Bank beauty to drink over the coming 10-12 years. Bravo!
