In this 2021 vintage, Clos Fourtet is a straightforward, precise wine with a great deal of freshness and elegance.
This is a wine to be kept in your cellar for many years, but one that will charm those who love the very great wines of Saint Emilion in their youth!
A crimson colour with violet highlights
A nose of ripe red fruit, raspberries, followed by woody notes
A clean, fruity attack on the palate, combined with good length and plenty of freshness. An elegant finish with silky tannins.
A great wine to cellar for many years.
The blend of the 2021 vintage is 90% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Cabernet Franc
The 2020 vintage was matured for 16 months in French oak barrels, 50% of which were new and 48% in one-wine barrels.
12bouteilles advice : A wine that deserves to wait a few years in your cellar before being opened. Decant the bottle at least 6 hours before serving, and serve chilled at around 18°C. This bottle is the perfect accompaniment to red meats and cheeses.
