I was very surprised by the quality of this supposedly weak year of Clos Fourtet. The Château is one of my favorites in St. Emilion, but i did not anticipate the 2004 to be so expressive, highly perfumed and balanced. A very nice balance between soft fruity notes (remainders), nice earthy, leather and spices, fully melted tannins and good length.
Probably perfectly stored over the years, this was a very satisfying wine, right on the plateau and probably for quite some years to come.

Fantastisk Merlot-dreven Bordeaux, hvor der trods alder og mindre god årgang var fortsat relativt tanninbid i. Kan godt ligge et par år til.

Mature, but not over the hill. Still has some years left.
Tasted in less than optimal stemware. Soft, plush texture with plummy red fruit and some gravelly soil. Fills the mouth quite well.
