| Over het wijnhuis | Château Clos Fourtet draagt de befaamde Premier Grand Cru Classé “B” status en behoort tot de top van Saint-Emilion. Het was ooit een klein fort dat waakte over Saint-Emilion. Het landgoed en de omringende muur - vandaar ‘Clos’ - zijn gemaakt van de rots waarop het zich bevindt. Sinds 2001 is Clos Fourtet in handen van de familie Cuvelier, die meerdere châteaux in Bordeaux bezit. |

| Awards | "The 2022 Clos Fourtet has turned out exceptionally well, offering an enticing bouquet of rose, plums, dark berries, licorice and spices. Medium to full-bodied, enrobing and seamless, it's deep and complete with a fleshy core of fruit, velvety tannins and a long, mineral and saline finish enhanced by notes of vibrant dark berries. As readers may remember, this blend of 90% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc was matured for 18 months in 50% new barrels, used barrels and amphorae." - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate "Extremely aromatic with iron, chalk, lead pencil and currants following through to a medium to full body with integrated tannins that are polished and very long. Wonderful balance to this with just hints of fresh herbs like basil and thyme. A blend of 90% merlot, 7% cabernet sauvignon and 3% cabernet franc. Give this four or five years to come together." - James Suckling "91% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Very dark purplish crimson. There's already some evolution here on the nose. Fragrant. Sweet start but still with some freshness. Meaty and savoury. But juicy, too, and not forced nor too heavy nor sweet. Finish is bone dry in fact! Very unlike the late-20th-century stereotype! (JR)" - Jancis Robinson "The 2022 Clos Fourtet is every bit as compelling as it was en primeur, maybe even a bit more so. Vertical and explosive, the 2022 offers a captivating mix of textural opulence and classic structure. The blend is 90% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc. One of the key signatures of Clos Fourtet is the presence of Cabernet Sauvignon, which is rarely seen on the Saint-Émilion plateau but seems to add weight and gravitas here. Dark blue fruits, new leather, spice, menthol and espresso stain the palate as the 2022 gradually reveals its considerable pedigree. The 2022 was raised in a mix of 58% once-used barrels, 40% new oak and 2% amphora. More importantly, it is without question one of the wines of the vintage." - Vinous "This is alluring, with a core of gently mulled blackberry and boysenberry fruit that shows a smoldering edge, with black tea, licorice, apple wood and tobacco details. There's underlying tension too, with a tug of chalk buried deeply on the very long and well-structured finish. For the cellar. Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. Best from 2026 through 2042." - Wine Spectator "Tobacco, pencil lead, rubber, violets, dark chocolate, vanilla, cinnamon and mint. Silky, smooth and glossy, with depth but no heaviness. Piercingly fresh with a tang of liquorice and flint. Not fully open, narrowing towards the finish but exuding class. Acidity is excellent. While there are lots of impressive 2022s, this makes you sit up, take note and then drink the whole glass. A wine that makes you smile." - Decanter |
