Château La Vieille Cure
Fronsac, Bordeaux
Château La Vieille Cure is one of the great overachievers of the Right Bank, offering power, polish, and serious aging potential at a fraction of the cost of its Pomerol and Saint-Émilion neighbours. Located on the limestone plateau of Fronsac, this historic estate—dating back to the 18th century—has seen a dramatic rise in quality over the last two decades.
The wine is typically a blend dominated by Merlot, with Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon bringing structure and aromatic lift. It’s rich, dark-fruited, and full-bodied, with notes of blackberry, graphite, baking spice, and mocha, all wrapped in velvety tannins and framed by a mineral edge from the limestone soils.
Modern in style but still deeply rooted in terroir, La Vieille Cure delivers exceptional value and class—easily standing toe-to-toe with wines at twice the price from more famous appellations. A cellar-worthy sleeper from an insider’s region.
Boccaccio Cellars offers real time shipping rates at checkout. These are heavily subsidised rates directly from Australia Post and will vary depending on your postcode.
Unfortunately, due to the ever increasing costs of postage we are unable to offer free shipping any longer. Postal increases have seen the average box of wine range from $30-$60, which can represent up to 500% of the cost of the average bottle of wine.
Your postal costs are calculated on the following factors:
- Where in Australia you are shipping to (Where rural postcodes obviously attract a higher charge)
- What in Australia you are shipping (Beer and water for example, are calculated in real time without any additional subsidy. This is because the margins for these products are minimal). Dry goods attract a discounted flat fee of $12 per carton (Calculated by gross weight).
Pickups on all items are encouraged.
