Omschrijving
Clos Fourtet is recht tegenover de grote kerk van Saint-emilion is gelegen. Het terroir bestaat uit een klei-leemgrond met veel kalk. Er wordt handmatig geoogst en zoals bij alle grote huizen vindt de eerste selectie al in de wijngaard plaats. De 2019 Clos Fourtet heeft aantrekkelijke aroma's van wilde bessen, potloodkrullen, zwarte truffel, rook-tonen en viooltjes. De 2019 Clos Fourtet is medium tot full bodied en heeft een perfecte structuur met een geconcentreerde kern van fruit, prachtig verfijnde tannines en levendige zuren. De wijn eindigt met een lange, zilte afdronk. Elegant en compleet, dit is een briljante wijn afkomstig van de 19 hectare grote wijngaard, gelegen op het kalksteenplateau van Saint-Émilion.
WEETJE: De wijn ligt in ons geconditioneerde Wine Warehouse en als u de wijn komt afhalen ontvangt u vaak ook nog een mooie korting. U ziet uw korting direct wanneer u kiest voor ‘Afhalen’ op de afrekenpagina. We zitten in Dordrecht gelegen bijna naast de A16 met volop parkeergelegenheid. Klik hier voor ons adres.

Attractive aromas of wild berries, pencil shavings, vine smoke, black truffle and violets introduce the 2019 Clos Fourtet, a medium to full-bodied, deep and seamless wine with a concentrated core of fruit, beautifully refined tannins and lively acids, concluding with a long, saline finish. Elegant and complete, this is a brilliant wine from this 19-hectare vineyard situated on the limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion, just outside the village, which has been on a qualitative roll since the 2001 vintage.
Like its neighbor, Canon, Clos Fourtet sits on Saint-Émilion's limestone plateau, with shallow soils directly above the bedrock; but whereas Canon is exposed south/southwest, Clos Fourtet's exposition is more northerly exposed and thus a touch less precocious. Since the Cuvelier family's purchase in 2001, the vineyards have been extensively replanted at higher density, and a massal selection has been taken and propagated, being rolled out wholesale beginning in 2018. Now the vineyards are maturing, and so is the winemaking style: there's less and less malolactic fermentation in barrel, winemaking is gentle and rather classical in inspiration, and new oak is chosen for discretion rather than impact. This is a superb site that naturally produces rather refined, precise but intense wines, developing considerable complexity with age, and the 2019 surely ranks among the finest vintages at this address in the modern era.

Lots of purple fruit with white pepper and crushed stones in the nose. It’s full-bodied, yet tight and poised with a very chalky and salty undertone to the purple fruit. Flavorful finish. Linear and long. Try after 2026.

From: 2019 Bordeaux from Bottle: The Two Towers (Feb 2022)
The 2019 Clos Fourtet is positively stellar, just as it was from barrel. It presents a beguiling mix of dense, plush fruit packed into a classically structure frame. The first impression is one of opulence, until the minerality of Saint-Émilion's famed plateau begins to emerge. Black cherry, plum, leather, exotic spice, licorice and blood orange build into the statuesque, explosive finish. The 2019 is a magnificent effort from the Cuvelier family and long time consulting winemaker Stephane Derenoncourt.

From: Omne Trium Perfectum: Bordeaux 2019s in Bottle (Feb 2022)
The 2019 Clos Fourtet has a beautifully defined bouquet of vivacious red berry fruit, wild hedgerow, cassis and crushed violets, intense at the moment, and yet I think this is going to close down. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannins, blackberry, a touch of tar, and a pinch of white pepper on a finish that fans out gloriously. A long-term prospect.

From: 2019 Bordeaux: A Long, Strange Trip (Jun, 2020)
The 2019 Clos Fourtet is exotic and beguiling in the glass. Inky dark fruit, licorice, espresso, menthol and lavender all run through this sumptuous, beautifully resonant Saint-Émilion with bright mineral underpinnings that extend the finish effortlessly. A regal, exquisite wine, the 2019 has so much to offer. I can't wait to taste it in bottle.

From: Uncertain Smile: Bordeaux 2019 (Jun 2020)
The 2019 Clos Fourtet continues its strong run of form under the direction of Mathieu Cuvelier and his team. It sprints out of the blocks with intense blackberries, raspberry coulis, blood orange and crushed violet aromas, touches of iodine developing as it musters ever increasing delineation. The palate is medium-bodied but (as expected) contains more weight and girth compared to its peers. Firm grip, solid and yet graceful, there is a crescendo of flavours towards its heady, focused and very persistent finish. Wonderful salinity in the mouth, the aftertaste is one of the longest you will find on the Right Bank. Fabulous.

Wijnhuis
Clos Fourtet dankt zijn reputatie aan de families Rulleau en Carles, heren van Figeac, die in de 18e eeuw in bezit kwamen van deze wijngaarden met een bijzondere natuurlijke drainage. In 2001 kwam Fourtet in bezit van de familie Cuvelier die met veel passie en investeringen Fourtet zijn status als 1e Grand Cru Classé hoog hielden. Deze nobele 1e Grand Cru Classé ligt recht tegenover de grote kerk van Saint-Emilion, bijna in het historisch hart van het eeuwenoude stadje. De kelders van de ommuurde wijngaarden (de Clos) bestaan uit maar liefst drie etages in de grotten uitgehouwen gangen. Bijna net zo indrukwekkend als de wijn.
