Chateau Clos Fourtet 2015 - Case of 6 Bottles (75cl)Medium to deep garnet purple colored, the 2015 Clos Fourtet has lifted menthol notes on the nose over a core of chocolate covered cherries, dried mulberries, baked plums and potpourri plus a touch of cloves. Medium bodied and very firm with lovely ripe, fine grained tannins and plenty of freshness, it finishes long and perfumed.
