critic reviews
The 2023 Feytit-Clinet has a perfumed, floral bouquet with violet and peony infusing the black cherry and blueberry fruit. Fine delineation and quite classy. The palate is medium-bodied with grainy tannins, gentle grip, a little powdery in texture toward the finish but it has the density to invite cellaring. One to watch (as usual).
Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2023 Feytit-Clinet needs a fair bit of shaking to wake up scents of crushed plums, black raspberries, and wild strawberries plus nuances of cedar and bay leaf with a hint of iron ore. The medium-bodied palate delivers a firm, chewy texture and just enough fresh fruit, finishing earthy.
Medium plus to full intensity this is inky, with gorgeous violet reflections, grilled oak on the nose, intense but has good construction and a sense of reserve, Espresso and charred coffee bean, along with cassis and blueberry, silky, concentrated, appellation typicity, and a ton of personality.
