CHÂTEAU CLOS FOURTET 2005

Saint-Émilion. Premier Grand Cru Classé B
u. 3 x bn. 3 x scuffed labels. 1 x scraped label.

Dense ruby/purple, with notes of crushed rock, blueberry and blackberry fruit intermixed with some licorice and chocolate, this full-bodied, massive wine from proprietor Philippe Cuvelier coincides with the resurrection of this premier grand cru classé in St.-Emilion. As the wine sits in the glass, notes of espresso roast and chocolate emerge. This full-bodied classic should continue to drink well for another 25 years. This is a killer effort. Drink: 2015-2040 June 2015 WA 98

3 bts.    per lot $600 - $800

Realised: $1,446
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
