Château FEYTIT-CLINET
Red
- 2024 Futures
- Pomerol
Attention: great wine! Quietly, Feytit-Clinet is closing in on the biggest names in Pomerol, with only the price lagging behind. As the Revue du Vin de France rightly points out, "there are no spectacular château or ultra-modern wineries here", the reputation of this cru is built solely on the consistent quality of its wines.
More impressive than its success in great vintages is Feytit-Clinet's performance in "smaller" vintages: the 2013 is a Guide Hachette Coup de Coeur, the 2017 is one of the wines of the vintage according to A. Galloni (Vinous)...
La Revue du Vin de France : 89-91/100 « Le terroir tendre de Feytit-Clinet, combiné à la fraîcheur du millésime, a enfanté un pomerol simple, aux tanins poudrés, à la tension citronnée. Le bâtonnage prévu permettra sûrement d’envelopper le toucher et les notes racinaires. »
Vinous (A. Galloni): 91-94/100 "The 2024 Feytit-Clinet is a very good wine in a challenging harvest marked by hail, mildew, coulure and millerandage. Dark and layered, with very good textural presence, the 2024 possesses notable depth. Black-toned fruit, leather, spice, gravel, incense and licorice convey an impression of somber gravitas. Some saignée in vinification as well as bâtonnage helped build attractive texture. As has been the case for some years now, the tannins are quite a bit less imposing here than they were in the past."
J-M Quarin : 90/100 « Nez très aromatique, fruité et un brin boisé. Bouche fruitée, élancée, savoureuse, agréable et de longueur moyenne. »
