Lot #1240. Clos Fourtet 2010

Description: Consists of 12 Bottles, 0.75L
Score: 98 RP.
"The wine has an opaque blue/black color and abundant notes of forest floor, spring flowers, black raspberry and blueberry liqueur in the aromatics along with hints of espresso and white chocolate. The wine is dense, full, rich, unctuously textured and very full-bodied, with its extravagant glycerin, fruit and extract covering the wine’s somewhat tannic structure. This is a bigger, more restrained and structured wine than the outrageously flamboyant and prodigious 2009. Give it 5-8 years of cellaring and drink it over the following 30-40 years." Wine Advocate #205, Feb 2013
Provenance: The Tower Cellar
Notes: 1 Nicked and 1 very lightly damp stained labels.
