Description
For centuries, the ancient 'Camp Fortet' (small fort) with its modest profile has overlooked the historic town of Saint-Émilion, peacefully surveying it in times of prosperity, protecting it in times of war.
The 20-hectare vineyard forms a single plot, planted upon the highest slopes of Western Saint-Émilion. Constructed from the very rock upon which it stands, the chateau and its surrounding wall (hence 'clos') are intimate and unassuming.
Ever since the beginning of the classification in 1956, Clos Fourtet has been a member of the elite 'Premiers Grands Crus Classés' of Saint-Émilion.

Tasting
After two exceptional years, they discover 2011 a classic wine that is more worn by identity
(Sandy clays and limestone plateau) terroir than a characteristic of the vintage. This dark and
deep wine evokes a wide range of fruit: cherry red and mature wild, enhanced by the violet and
a hint of licorice. This wine full-bodied and wall, expresses in the mouth great purity and
accuracy of grain of tannin. The finish is smooth and fresh.
