Suckling om: Chateau Clos Fourtet 1er Grand Cru Classe B

A real St. Emilion with such finesse and intensity. Aromas of blueberries, blackberries, graphite, subtle crushed limestone and dried and fresh flowers. Perfumed. Medium- to full-bodied with tight and polished tannins and a long, long finish. Such class. 87% merlot, 7% cabernet franc and 6% cabernet sauvignon. A gorgeous red. Give it time. Drink or hold.

The Wine Palate om: Chateau Clos Fourtet 1er Grand Cru Classe B

The 2023 Clos Fourtet is deep garnet-purple in color. Fragrant notes of raspberry coulis, wild blueberries, juicy black cherries, violets, and licorice dance seductively out of the glass, giving way to hints of garrigue and menthol. The medium- to full-bodied palate delivers intense, vibrant red berry and spicy flavors supported by fine-grained tannins and jaw-dropping tension, finishing with great length and poise. This is a real head-turner. The blend is 87% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc, and 6% Cabernet Sauvignon, with a pH of 3.50.

Galloni om: Chateau Clos Fourtet 1er Grand Cru Classe B

The 2023 Clos Fourtet is every bit as impressive as it was en primeur. Layers of dark-toned fruit, leather, incense, mocha and gravel all build over time, leading to an impressively potent, dramatic finish. Readers will find a rich, heady Clos Fourtet. I would cellar it for at least a few years to allow the tannins to soften and the baby fat to melt away. Today, the 2023 is very young and quite primary. Readers should be in no rush. Tasted twice.
