Tasting Notes | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Cloves, pencil lead, black chocolate, dark cassis fruits, this veers towards aniseed and fennel bitterness on the finish, but there is concentration here, and plenty of appellation character. A good choice for an impactful Pomerol, no need to wait too long but ensure a good few hours in a carafe. Score: 92 Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux Maturity: 2024-2041 21 February 2024 |

The 2021 Feytit-Clinet is a relatively soft, easygoing wine for a Pomerol that tends to be both brooding and explosive. Crushed red berry fruit, rose petal, spice and lavender are nicely pushed forward. Today, my impression is that the 2021 will be a wine to drink on the younger side, while some of the more important vintages mature in the cellar. Incidentally, a recent bottle of the 2009 was both fabulous and very young. Score: 90 - 92 Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com Maturity: 2031-2041 01 May 2022 |

The 2021 Feytit-Clinet has a very perfumed bouquet of ripe red cherries, cassis and orange zest, well defined and yet understated. The palate is smooth and poised on the entry and a little powdery in texture, with a hint of dark chocolate toward the finish. Certainly a lighter style of Feytit-Clinet and, though well-balanced, it just misses the élan that has distinguished recent vintages. Drink over the next 15 years.

A medium-bodied red that starts off beautifully, with attractive currant and berry character, as well as black olive and violet. Fresh and vivid. Score: 93 - 94 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 01 May 2022 |

Rich and muscular, the 2021 Feytit Clinet offers up aromas of cassis, blackberries, violets and toasty new oak. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered, it's a generous, structured Pomerol built around powdery tannins and lively acids.

The 2021 Château Feytit-Clinet comes from a 6.68-hectare vineyard located between Trotanoy and Latour a Pomerol, not far from Clinet. Based on 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc that will spend 16 months in 70% new barrels, it offers a round, fleshy, medium to full-bodied style that brings plenty of mid-palate depth, ripe tannins, and ample darker, blue fruits as well as some classic Pomerol earthy and floral nuances. It's beautifully done and certainly offers more pleasure and opulence than most out there. Tasted twice. Score: 91 - 94 Jeb Dunnuck, JebDunnuck.com 06 February 2022 |
