At the beginning of the 13th century, vines appeared at the locality of “Fourcas”, as noted in the cartographic work by the geographer Pierre de Belleyme during the reign of Louis XV. The name “Fourcas Dupré” came into being in 1843 when Maître Jean Antoine Dupré became the owner. In 1970, the estate was taken over by the Pagès family which continued to uphold the same ethos of precision, expertise and passion.
In 2019, entrepreneur Gérard Jicquel purchased the estate.

AOC: Listrac-Medoc
Tasting notes & Score:
"A little lean and linear but with some pleasant berry and currant character, a medium body and a light finish."
"This is tasting beautiful this year, very enjoyable fruit extraction that manages to be intense but not overdone. The tannins are firm but could perhaps be a little more pliable to fully open up the structure of the wine. Classic, with lovely menthol notes and a good example of the work being done in Listrac right now. Planted to 44% Merlot, 44% Cabernet Sauvignon with the rest Cabernet Franc and a splash of Petit Verdot."
