Château Feytit-Clinet
About Château Feytit-Clinet
Château Feytit Clinet is a small property, particularly by Bordeaux standards, with a 7-hectare vineyard located near Chateau Clinet, Latour à Pomerol and Clos L'Église. The Chasseuil family retook over management of the estate in 2000 and undertook a series of measures to improve the quality of their wines. Putting his former experience at Château La Dominique to good use, Jeremy Chasseuil drastically reduced yields and practised green harvesting, resulting in a much richer wine. This small estate only produces about 1,200 to 1,500 cases of wines per vintage, and their relative obscurity bodes well for value seekers.

Another blockbuster in the making from this tiny estate in Pomerol, the 2020 Château Feytit-Clinet is based on a normal blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, hitting 14.8% natural alcohol with a pH of 3.7. The aging will span 18 months in 70% new French oak. It boasts a dense purple hue as well as a stunning nose of crème de cassis, currants, tobacco, and damp earth. About as ripe, sexy, and opulent as they come, it still shows the purity and freshness of this great vintage. It reveals more and more tannins with time in the glass, but given its mid-palate as well as its overall density, it’s going to benefit from just 3-4 years of bottle age and cruise for 20-30 years.Inc.
