critic reviews

84/100Lisa Perrotti-Brown,The Wine Independent

The 2021 Feytit-Clinet has a medium to deep garnet-purple color. The nose is a little reduced with rubbery/tar-inspired notes, followed by a core of black and red plums and sauteed herbs. The medium-bodied palate is a tad thin, with lightly chewy tannins and a succinct finish.

92/100Jane Anson,Inside Bordeaux

Cloves, pencil lead, black chocolate, dark cassis fruits, this veers towards aniseed and fennel bitterness on the finish, but there is concentration here, and plenty of appellation character. A good choice for an impactful Pomerol, no need to wait too long but ensure a good few hours in a carafe.

88/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2021 Feytit-Clinet feels a little muffled on the nose and, as I commented before, just lacks the brightness and zest of recent vintages. The palate is medium-bodied with good depth and dry tannins. This is an introverted Feytit-Clinet with dried blood and black pepper toward the finish; a couple of bottles suggest this might have a bit of Brettanomyces. It’s not a bad wine, though one I’d drink in the first decade of its life—a rare dropped-catch in a run of excellent vintages for this Pomerol estate.

90-92/100William Kelley,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Rich and muscular, the 2021 Feytit Clinet offers up aromas of cassis, blackberries, violets and toasty new oak. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered, it's a generous, structured Pomerol built around powdery tannins and lively acids.
