Attention: great wine! Quietly, Feytit-Clinet is closing in on the biggest names in Pomerol, with only the price lagging behind.

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)...
Magnificent 2013, rated 90-92 / 100 by Wine Advocate "undoubted star of the vintage. That is, atypically for a 2013 rich, succulent and sappy. "

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2023): 92/100 “The 2021 Feytit-Clinet is a pretty understated release for this property, where the wines are often larger in scale. Soft contours wrap around a core og plum, red cherry, spice, new leather and white pepper. As it was en primeur, the 2021 is a relatively open-knit, accessible Feytit-Clinet that will drink well with minimal cellaring. sweet floral and spice notes grace the silky finish.”

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2022): 95/100 "The 2020 Feytit-Clinet is a brooding, powerful wine. Blackberry jam, graphite, licorice, incense, spice and espresso saturate the palate with tremendous depth. As always, Feytit Clinet is a wine of vertical structure. There's plenty of tannins, but they are pretty much buried by the sheer intensity of the fruit. This is compelling."

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2022): 95/100 "The 2018 Feytit-Clinet is exquisite. Inky dark fruit, gravel, spice, menthol, licorice, mint and lavender are some of the many aromas and flavors that develop as the 2018 shows off its compelling, totally unique personality. In most recent vintages, Feytit-Clinet has been explosive and quite powerful. The 2018 doesn't quite have that energy, but its (relatively) suave personality will make it easy to enjoy with only a few years in bottle. I loved it."

Vinous (A. Galloni - December 2020): 95/100 “The 2017 Feytit-Clinet is flat-out stunning, and also one of the wines of the vintage. An exotic mélange of blackberry jam, graphite, game, smoke, licorice and espresso builds in an explosive Pomerol endowed with tremendous verticality and power. As always, Feytit-Clinet is an especially somber Pomerol. Its textural finesse, personality and pure bred intensity are the stuff dreams are made of. Don't miss it"
J-M Quarin (February 2020): 90/100 “Dark, intense and beautiful color. Medium-aromatic nose, with pure, ripe fruit. Creamy touch. Finely mellow throughout, very well constructed, the palate of this wine evolves unceasingly tasty, on fine tannins. Long and very good."

Vinous (A. Galloni - February 2017): 94/100 "Game, smoke, tobacco, licorice and incense run through the 2014 Feytit Clinet, wich exudes depth and intensity. Chocolate, gravel and a host of dark-toned fruits nearly bury the tannins.[...] Proprietor Jérémy Chasseuil and his team have done a terrific job with the 2014."
