Clos Fourtet enjoys an ideal setting, with its 47 acres of walled vineyard atop a limestone-based plateau. Clos Fourtet was sold in 2001 by the the Lurton family for just under £42 million to the Cuvelier family. By lowering yields, encouraging malolactic fermentation in stainless-steel tanks and employing less new oak, Clos Fourtet shows greater precision.
Dark purple colour with violet hue and black core. Elegant nose with refined fruit, blackberries, blackcurrant, red currant jelly and hints of raspberries, discreet aromatic herbs, gingerbread spices and fine toasting. On the palate well balanced with elegance and refinement, ripe tannins, fine fruit and discreet spiciness, subtle oak with excellent length.
