Merchant's description
Clos Fourtet is a Premier Grand Cru Classé estate in Saint-Émilion, a status that was reconfirmed in the 2022 classification. The 18.5-hectare vineyard is planted mostly to Merlot [85%], with 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc on clay soils over limestone. While the 2020 vintage may require some additional time to fully develop and reveal its true character, it holds immense promise for the future.
