The estate has historical ties to Armand du Plessis, the Duke of Richelieu, a prominent figure in eighteenth-century France who originally used the château as a hunting lodge. Today, the property encompasses 17 hectares of vineyards.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wine originates from Bordeaux, a globally renowned region on the Atlantic coast that has been exporting wine since the Middle Ages and is famous for its elegant blends. Specifically, it comes from Moulis-en-Médoc, the smallest commune appellation in the Médoc, located on the Left Bank in the central Haut-Médoc west of Margaux. The area stretches inland from the Gironde estuary, featuring an oceanic climate and some of the finest quartz gravel banks over clay-limestone, which provide excellent drainage and heat retention. The 1986 vintage from this area achieved a score of 89 points and is characterized as tight and classic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine is crafted from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. On the Left Bank, Cabernet Sauvignon traditionally dominates the gravel soils. It is complemented by Merlot, a classic blue grape widely cultivated in Bordeaux, as well as in California, Washington, and Northern Italy. Following the harvest, the wine is aged for one and a half years in oak barrels, securing its Appellation Moulis Contrôlée classification.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sté Civile du Château Fourcas Dupré","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57668142530886,"sku":null,"price":135.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/3F38DE79-6AFD-4465-BCC4-2AD3F881145C.jpg?v=1792572475","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.com\/products\/moulis-en-medoc-chateau-duplessis-fabre-1986","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
