- "Clos Fourtets 2004 is a worthy successor to their brilliant 2003, a breakthrough vintage for this estate... offers a dark purple color as well as a gloriously sweet nose of raspberries, creme de cassis, licorice, and smoke. This seamless, medium to full-bodied effort exhibits more texture and intensity than many of its peers. There is even a degree of fatness, a characteristic not generally found in this vintage...90" WA 5/05.

- Quite dark crimson, markedly seductive nose. Very gentle palate. (Very different from the chunky '98 tasted last night!) Lots of effort has gone into this. Bravo! Tannins sufficient.
