Clos Fourtet, a Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé B estate, boasts a history that dates back to the French Revolution. The winery is celebrated for creating deep, complex Merlot-based wines that are a quintessential expression of Saint-Émilion's limestone terroir.

Clos Fourtet is a 20-hectare Premier Grand Cru Classé B estate situated on Saint-Émilion's limestone plateau, producing approximately 60,000 bottles annually of structured, mineral-driven Merlot-dominant wines from high-density plantings on clay-limestone soils. The Cuvelier family's meticulous approach combines hand harvesting and traditional wooden vat fermentation with modern precision, aging their wines in the estate's natural limestone caves that mirror the distinctive terroir expressed in their flagship bottling.
