Tasting Notes
Robert Parker
Score: 93-95 Robert Parker"This estateês extraordinary progression in quality over recent years has culminated in the greatest Feytit-Clinet ever made. The inky/purple-tinged 2009 reveals loads of spring flower aromas intermixed with notions of charcoal, black currants, black raspberries, blueberries, graphite, blackberries, and hints of licorice and forest floor. A blend of 95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc that achieved 14.5% alcohol naturally, consumers should jump on this exquisite Pomerol as the marketplace has not yet caught up with the quality emerging from this property. Yields were 34 hectoliters per hectare. Thick, unctuous flavors, full-bodied power, and sweet tannins suggest it will drink well for 25-35 years. Sadly, only 1,300 cases will be produced."
Jancis Robinson
Score: 16 Points"Exceptionally dark crimson. Tarry and very ripe but with great dryness on the finish. This could just be a bit too dry overall. Drink 2017-2026"
Wine Spectator
Score: 92-95 PointsBlackberry and licorice, with spices. Tar. Full-bodied, with velvety tannins and a round and beautiful finish. So silky and beautiful. Lovely texture.
Bibendum
Score: 17 PointsSoft, silky and elegant with deliciously ripe tannins and supple bramble and poached plum fruit. Brilliant balance and energy too. Tres bien! Drink from 2016.
