VINIFICATION

Clos Fourtet, St. Emilion Grand Cru Classé 2016 Size::6 Bottle Case Gently whole bunch pressedThe 2016 Clos Fourtet is a blend of 90% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc aged in 60% new oak. It has a generous, well defined licorice tinged fruit that is very focused. The palate is medium bodied with fine tannin, blackberry and boysenberry fruit with that salted licorice theme continuing. This Clos Fourtet has impressive concentration, yet there is real elegance and persistence, fanning out wonderfully towards the finish. Mathieu
