Dominated by Merlot (95%) blended with a small amount of Cabernet Franc (5%), with 14.5% natural alcohol, it exhibits an opaque blue/purple color as well as a bouquet reminiscent of blueberry pie intermixed with espresso beans, black raspberries, charcoal and graphite. Full-bodied, thick and juicy with undeniable purity, a layered mouthfeel and abundant but sweet tannins, this exceptional Pomerol should be ready for prime time drinking in 5-8 years and last for at least three decades. Unfortunately, there are just over 1,300 cases produced.

Tasted at the Syndicat de Pomerol. Jeremy Chasseuil has made a very elegant Feytit-Clinet. It has a well defined bouquet that blossoms in the glass, quite floral and alluring. The palate is medium-bodied with conversely, quite sturdy tannins that should see it age well. Very good fruit intensity here: this is not a shy Feytit, rather one that really want to make a statement. Long and complex on the finish, great precision and mineralite. Superb. Tasted November 2011.

Good bright red-ruby. Wild, meaty aromas of black raspberry, roast coffee, minerals, toffee and smoky oak; very Pomerol. Pliant and sweet, with superb depth and an utterly seamless texture to the flavors of black raspberry, mocha and roast coffee. As plush as this Pomerol is, it easily maintains its shape. Dusty tannins spread out to saturate the palate on the long, generous finish. A superb result for this property.
