  Produced from a parcel selection, the wine is soft, polished, forward, round, and fresh, with a nice sweetness to the cherries, and licorice on the palate and in the finish. This is the first vintage when the second wine will be offered as a future. The wine was made from blending 90% Merlot, with 10% Cabernet Franc. You can enjoy this for its fruits, and freshness on release. Drink from 2025-2032. 89-91 Pts.

  91 vvPunkte / (Alte Reben auf Lehm und junge Reben auf Kalk) Expressiv und reiffruchtig, mit kalkigem Kern, einer dezent laktischen Note und feiner Röstaromatik. Im Gaumen frisch, knackig, mittlerer Körper, feines Tannin, der Wein ist nicht überextrahiert, zeigt Würze und rotfruchtige Aromen im Abgang. Ausgezeichnet und gerade für die Gastro ein perfekter Einstieg in die Welt von Clos Fourtet. (Verkostet "En Primeur" im April 2023 auf Clos Fourtet) #primeurs22 www.vvWine.ch
