La Closerie de Fourtet 2025 - France - En Primeur
La Closerie de Fourtet comes from the historic Clos Fourtet estate on the Saint-Émilion limestone plateau. The 2025 vintage shows a refined, approachable style with good freshness, clarity of fruit, and a classic limestone-driven mineral profile.
The nose offers red and black cherry, raspberry, plum, violet, light spice, and subtle earthy notes. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and supple, with smooth tannins, fresh acidity, and a clean, balanced structure. The finish is elegant and straightforward, with a gentle mineral lift.
