Château Fourcas Hosten 2017
Listrac-Medoc, Bordeaux
Soil: Two different complementary terroirs: one is clayey limestone and the other is made up of Pyrenean gravels
Vinifcation: 1.5 years barreled new and aged
The harvest plan for every plot meets the imperative that grapes must be picked when and only when they are perfectly ripe. The teams increase the number of passes or take days off with no picking as conditions dictate.
Thorough optical sorting of the fruit as the harvest arrives in the winery, guarantees that only the best berries are selected.
The vathouse, which was designed in 2010, has a total of more than 40 small tanks (from 2,500 to 10,000 litres in capacity), made of wood, concrete and stainless steel. This arrangement enables the wine from each individual plot to receive customized care. Every tank has its own special settings in terms of temperature, frequency of pumping over, soak duration, etc.
