A Refined Premier Grand Cru Classé from Saint-Émilion
The property
Perched for centuries on the heights of the historic town of Saint-Émilion, Clos Fourtet embodies the region's heritage. Acquired in 2001 by the Cuvelier Family, the estate has established itself as a true icon of Saint-Émilion, offering wines with an intensely fruity texture, silky tannins of rare elegance, and a particularly unique aromatic expression.
The vineyard
A reference among the great wines of Saint-Émilion, Clos Fourtet comes from a 22-hectare vineyard. Located at the top of the appellation, where the limestone outcrops, the vineyard benefits from optimal drainage. The predominance of limestone gives the wine a freshness, minerality, and remarkable finesse, true signatures of this exceptional cru.
Vinification and aging
The grapes ferment in stainless steel tanks, with regular pump-overs. The maceration, lasting 25 to 30 days, is followed by a malolactic fermentation carried out in tank and barrel. The aging then continues for several months in barrels, predominantly new ones.
