A Pomerol wine with complex aromas and a refined texture

The estate
Created in 1825, Château Feytit-Clinet thrives on 6.5 hectares of the western plateau of Pomerol in Bordeaux. A family property of the Chasseuil family since 2000, the estate benefits from the leadership of Jérémy Chasseuil who has transformed it since 1999. This renaissance has propelled Feytit-Clinet among the benchmark estates of the Pomerol appellation.

The vineyard
