Die Weine dieses feinen Fronsac sind seit einigen Jahren deutlich im Aufwind, und der Jahrgang 2018 ist mit seiner insgesamt etwas opulenteren Frucht eine wunderbare Visitenkarte für diese Trouvaille, die zu 85% aus Merlot und zu 15% aus Cabernet Franc bereitet wird.

"The 2016 la Dauphine, from the Famille Labrune, has a lifted and quite floral, almost Margaux-like bouquet that opens beautifully in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with ripe tannin, smooth in texture, tightening up towards the slightly attenuated finish. This will probably require two or three years in bottle but there is good potential here, even if it does not quite excite as much as last year's 2015."

"This is probably the best wine ever produced at La Dauphine, loaded with brambly fruits and softly-spun minerality, taking it into the top tier of the appellation. They are now at 53ha of vines, making them a significant Right Bank player. Working entirely organically and biodynamically, this year a new plot has been included from up on the limestone plateau that was not historically biodynamic, so they have had to start the process of certification all over again. The blend this year is 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc."

"Michel Rolland consults.
Dark purple. Quite rich and some exotic floral quality on the nose. Not as sappy as some. Just a bit heavy. "
Jancis Robinson MW 15,5/20

"Deeply colored, with a lush, round, supple character, the wine is packed to the gills with licorice, sweet, juicy, dark red and black fruits, chocolate and espresso beans. Sweet, fresh, ripe, earthy, dark fruits with great textures and presence, plus it sells for a song and drinks well early!"

"This is extremely structured and dense yet agile and energetic at the same time. Medium to full body, flanked by a linear backbone of tannins. Down on this."

"Barrel Sample. This wine is structured, dark and concentrated. With powerful tannins, it is going to be a dense and solidly constructed wine. There is power here in the abundance of rich fruit and spice flavors."

"Black cherry, plum, chocolate, spice and licorice infuse the La Dauphine. Powerful and deep in all of its dimensions, the 2016 is super-impressive. It’s made in an especially dark, unctuous, concentrated style for the appellation. Tasted two times."
Antonio Galloni 89-91 Punkte (Apr. 2017)
"The 2016 Adaugusta offers good depth and richness, not to mention a good bit of immediacy as well. Black cherry, lavender, spice and leather all meld together in this racy, succulent Saint-Émilion. This is a decidedly pushed, fruity style, but it works well."

"Pourpre violacé. Bouquet de bonne intensité. Notes florales et fruitées. Touche minérale avec des notes de craie. Mise en bouche élégante et fruitée. Le corps est équilibré, et reflète bien les caractéristiques olfactives. Les tannins sont bien intégrés et en symbiose avec une structure vive et rafraîchissante. Un vin élégant que l’on pourra savourer dans sa jeunesse et qui a un bon potentiel."
