Neal Martin 96 points www.vinous.com The 2016 Clos Fourtet fulfills the promise shown out of barrel. It bursts from the glass with extremely well-focused, copious blackberry, licorice and undergrowth aromas. Medium-bodied on the palate, displaying finer tannin than the 2015. Beautifully balanced, but – as is typical of this estate – there is real weight and grip toward the finish, which fans out with confidence.
Jean-Marc Quarin 96 points www.quarin.com Couleur sombre, intense, belle, aux reflets noirs. Nez intense, fin, fruité et mûr. Bouche particulièrement raffinée dès l’entrée, se développant moelleuse sur un fruité éclatant. Suave et fondant, le vin s’envole en finals, long, séveux et noble. Un délice
Antonio Galloni 97 points www.vinous.com The 2016 Clos Fourtet is vivid, explosive and simply captivating. Inky blue/purplish berry fruit, lavender, spice and white flowers are all vivid in the glass, but it is the wine’s silky, seamless personality that elevates it into a place among the wines of the vintage. In 2016, Clos Fourtet is stunningly beautiful and utterly compelling. This is a tremendous showing from proprietor Matthieu Cuvelier and consulting winemaker Stéphane Derenoncourt. Tasted two times.
