Note di degustazione
More dense and compact than the 2009, the 2010 Feytit-Clinet offers a huge, rich, backward style in its smoked dark fruits, graphite, crushed rock, violet, and truffle aromas and flavors. Like the 2009, it's a massive, rich, incredibly concentrated wine. Hide bottles for 4-5 years and enjoy over the following two to three decades.

Good bright, deep ruby. Vibrant aromas of black raspberry, minerals and peppery spices. Dense and superrich, showing a distinctly saline element to its chewy flavors of cassis, blueberry, mocha, bitter chocolate and licorice. A bit less obviously creamy than some of the richest 2010 Pomerols but this wine boasts very good ripe acidity and excellent grip. Big, ripe tannins give it the structure for mid-term aging.
As I have indicated in previous reports, Feytit-Clinet is a property on the rise. The 2010 comes from a tiny vineyard of about 18+ acres just across the street from Trotanoy and Latour a Pomerol. A blend of 95% Merlot and 5% Cabernet Franc reaching 14.5% natural alcohol (a nearly standard level of alcohol in most Pomerols and St.-Emilions in 2010), this wine sports a dense purple color and a sweet nose of mulberries, blueberry liqueur, cassis and licorice as well as hints of mocha and white chocolate. Full-bodied, dense, and rich, with sweet tannin and good acidity giving it a laser-like precision and freshness on the palate, this wine should drink nicely for 15+ years.
