Clos Fourtet is one of the most famous wineries of Saint-Émilion – located directly at the historic city walls, with limestone terroir that forces the roots of the Merlot vines deep into the subsoil. Since its classification as Premier Grand Cru Classé B, the Château has been among the top of the appellation ranking. The wines are traditionally aged in barriques and show a typical Saint-Émilion signature: ripe dark fruit, velvety tannins, long finish.

Clos Fourtet: Limestone terroir at the city walls of Saint-Émilion

Clos Fourtet is located in Saint-Émilion, right by the historic city walls. The site was originally a medieval fortification. Viticulture began here in the mid-18th century under Léon Rulleau, and in 1868 the estate received its current name.

Under the vines lies limestone, which forces the roots of the Merlot vines deep into the subsoil. Since its classification as Premier Grand Cru Classé B, the Château has belonged to the top of the appellation. The owners also shape the history: in 1919, Fernand Ginestet bought the estate, from 1949 to 2001 it belonged to the Lurton family, after which Philippe Cuvelier took over.

The wines are traditionally aged in barriques and show the typical signature of Saint-Émilion: ripe dark fruit, velvety tannins and a long finish.

Find the right wine faster – with our picks

Row above the wines with the “Our picks” button open and three Super Tuscans

You can now find the right wine faster. Above the wines in every category there is one row that brings it all together: Our picks, Occasion, Goes with, Wine style, Filters and Sort by.

Row above the wines with Filters, Our picks, Goes with, Wine style, Bought before and Sort by; the "Our picks" button is open with "Super Tuscan" selected, next to it Tignanello, Le Volte and Le Serre Nuove

  • Our picks. The "Our picks" button comes first. Choose "Great value" to see wines that deliver more than their price suggests. Some of them have been recognised by Falstaff and other critics for exactly that, the others we have picked for you.
  • Super Tuscans. On the Tuscany page, "Our picks" also takes you to the red cult wines that deliberately broke with the old appellation rules: Tignanello, Ornellaia, Sassicaia, Le Volte, Guado al Tasso and many more, from the first step up to large formats.
  • One tap, one choice. Tap "Occasion", "Goes with" or "Wine style" and pick what you are looking for, such as "Aperitif & spritz" or "Fish". The button then shows what is currently selected.
  • Everything at a glance. Whatever you have selected appears right below. Tap the cross to remove it, or "Clear all" to remove everything at once.
  • Always at hand on your phone. The row stays at the top while you scroll, so you can change filters and sorting without scrolling back up.
  • Bought before. When you are logged in, the "Bought before" switch shows which wines in the category you have already bought from us, online or in the shop. Handy when you want to find a favourite again.
