Tasting notes
Opaque in the glass, the 2024 Feytit Client is impressive. It has a dense and compact nose, leading to a similarly impressive palate – voluptuous in its texture. It’s packed with rich dark fruit, ripe plum and black cherry, round and intense, lifted by bright acidity and with a long, persistent finish. Aged in around two-thirds new oak, 13.5% alcohol and 3.7pH. Blend: 88% Merlot, 12% Cabernet Franc

Lots of cassis, ripe cherries, smoky oak, espresso, and loamy earth emerge from the 2024 Château Feytit-Clinet, a plush, medium to full-bodied, pleasure-bent beauty with velvety tannins, integrated background oak, solid mid-palate depth, and a great finish. This continues to be one of the standout values in Pomerol, and it's a wine I consistently add to my personal cellar.
Grilled oak, well textured damson and cherry pit, shows depth through the mid palate, enjoyable cloves and white pepper, even a touch of orange peel. Consultant Rolland Laboratory. 33hl/ha. Harvest 18 to 28 September. 65% new oak, JM Chasseuil winemaker and owner.
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 batonnage 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. Élevage, 65% new oak and 35% once-used barrels, will play a critical in determining the final result. Harvest started on September 18 for the Merlots and wrapped up on the 28th.
