Clos Fourtet 2010 is a full-bodied Bordeaux blend from the St-Émilion appellation. It is crafted from a blend of 87% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc, achieving an alcohol level of 14.5%. The vineyard, managed by the Cuvelier family since 2001, sits at the heart of Saint-Émilion, reflecting the region’s rich terroir. Initially somewhat reserved, this vintage unveils layers of black cherry, blueberry preserves and dried fruit alongside earthy notes of loamy soil, cast iron and a touch of sandalwood. Full-bodied, it showcases robust tannins and a complex finish marked by mineral freshness.

- The 2010 Clos Fourtet has a well defined and focused bouquet with tarry black fruit, black pepper and tobacco notes, almost equidistant between Left and Right Bank in style. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannins, supple and underpinned by a fine bead of acidity. Very harmonious towards the finish with well-integrated oak, this is a superb Saint-Émilion.
