Neal Martin 95-97 points www.robertparker.com The 2015 Clos Fourtet is a blend of 90% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Cabernet Franc, and it was picked between 18 September and 12 October. It has a voluminous bouquet with sweet cassis and blueberry aromas, rather smudged with violets coming through with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with rounded tannin, ripe and voluptuous, dark chocolate infusing the red and black fruit with a touch of mint on the structured, graceful finish. What a fabulous Saint Emilion from Mathieu Cuvelier and his team – Clos Fourtet with breeding and class. It deserves 5-8 years in bottle.
Jean-Marc Quarin 96 points www.quarin.com Ma meilleure note donnée à ce cru en primeur. Couleur intense et belle. Nez très aromatique, fin, fruité, mûr et profond. Très belle entrée en bouche ample. Puis le vin se met à fondre, avec beaucoup de grâce, juteux et étincelant de fruit. Minutieux dans son déroulé, subtilement puissant, il s’achève long et complexe sur un grain fin. Délicieux ! L’élevage pourrait encore le grandir. Mes statistiques entre la note primeur et la note en bouteille montrent que c’est souvent le cas dans les très grands millésimes de ce cru (2005, 2009, 2010). Bravo ! Assemblage : 88 % merlot, 2 % cabernet franc, 10 % cabernet sauvignon.
Antonio Galloni 93-96 points www.vinous.com The 2015 Clos Fourtet is unusually rich and sumptuous in this vintage. Exotic aromatics, a huge core of fruit and ample, soft contours give the 2015 much of its striking personality. Although quite racy and unctuous today, the 2015 is going to need a number of years to shed its baby fat before it is even close to showing all it has to offer. This is a compelling effort from the Cuvelier family and consulting winemakers Stéphane Derenoncourt and Julien Lavenu. The blend is 88% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 2% Cabernet Franc. Tasted two times.
