The flexibility and elegance of a Pomerol red wine
The estate
Founded in 2009, Château Fayat is the result of the merger of three estates: Prieurs de la Commanderie, La Commanderie de Mazeyres and Vieux Château Bourgneuf.
The passionate Fayat family conducted a rigorous study of the estate's soils in 2016 to ensure optimal management of its vineyard, giving birth to great Pomerol wines.
The vineyard
Château Fayat 2011 is a Pomerol wine from a 14-hectare terroir, with 11 hectares in production. The vines, averaging 50 years old, are planted on deep Graves with brown soils composed of sand, silt and clay.
Vinification and aging
Following manual harvesting, the grapes undergo vinification in stainless steel and wooden vats. Aging for a period of 12 months in barrels (50% new).
Blend
Merlot, cabernet franc.
