Once again, we are proud that our Own Selection Pomerol comes from selected parcels of vines at Ch. Feytit-Clinet. The estate is just seven hectares of glorious vineyards planted mostly to Merlot; a dash (10%) of Cabernet Franc adds structure in warmer vintages. The 2019 is an elegant, charming wine. Laden with silky, blackberry and kirsch flavours, the fruit feels decadent but never heavy, and is impossibly moreish. Hard to resist now, it will drink best with game and poultry, but it is a versatile all-rounder.
