The red wine Clos Fourtet, vintage 2005 from the winery Château Clos Fourtet has been rated in 2023 by Peter Moser with 97 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc from the region Bordeaux in France.
Dark ruby in colour with an opaque core, purple reflections, and subtle brightening on the rim. On the nose, an inviting, multi-faceted bouquet with delicate blackberry and liquorice, fine wild berries, a touch of fine oak and tangerine zest. The palate is complex, spicy, and full-bodied with supporting tannins, ripe plum fruit, mineral and persistent with some nougat on the saline, spicy finish. A powerful food wine with the potential for further ageing. A classic, great Clos Fourtet.
