2022ClosFourtet

Sans Other Reviewsâ€?Now incorporating the vineyards of the former Grand Murailles, the 2022 Clos Fourtet is lovely, wafting from the glass with aromas of dark berries, plums, rose petals, orange zest and exotic spices. Medium to full-bodied, velvety and seamless, it’s deep and complete, with a layered core of vibrant fruit and a long, saline finish. This is another terrific wine from this 19-hectare vineyard situated on the limestone plateau of Saint-Émilion, just outside the village. It’s a blend of 90% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Franc and 3% Cabernet Sauvignon.94-96 pointsWilliam Kelley â€?Wine Advocate (Apr 2023)
