Château Fourcas Hosten, located in the heart of the prestigious Médoc region in France, is a historic and renowned wine producer. The estate has a rich history dating back to the 18th century when it was founded by the Hosten family. However, it was not until the 19th century when it was acquired by the Fourcas family that the estate truly flourished.
Today, Château Fourcas Hosten is a shining example of the exceptional quality and character that can be found in wines from the Médoc. The estate spans over 55 hectares of prime vineyards, with a majority of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc grape varieties being grown. The unique terroir of the estate, with its gravelly soil and ideal microclimate, allows for the production of wines with great depth, complexity, and longevity.

With its deep ruby color, intense aromas of blackcurrant, and a palate of ripe fruit and subtle spice, Château Fourcas Hosten is a true expression of its terroir. It is a wine that demands attention, evoking a sense of elegance, refinement, and tradition. A wine that truly embodies the essence of the Médoc.
