An elegant and fruity red wine from Pomerol
The estate
Born from the merger of the châteaux La Commanderie de Mazeyres, Prieurs de la Commanderie and Vieux Bourgneuf, the Château Fayat benefits from an exceptional diversity of terroirs within the Pomerol appellation.
The vineyard
Château Fayat oversees a vineyard of 13.36 hectares, with vines averaging 50 years old.
The signature of this Pomerol wine authentically expresses the characteristics of the terroirs of these three former estates. If the terroir of Château La Commanderie de Mazeyres is gravelly-sandy, that of Vieux Bourgneuf is sandy-clayey and that of Château Prieurs de la Commanderie is mainly composed of gravel, sand and clay.
Vinification and aging
Hand-harvested at full maturity, the grapes are sorted in the vineyards and then on the table. Parcel vinification partly in wooden vats and thermo-regulated steel vats. Maceration between 25 and 30 days. The malolactic fermentation is partly carried out in new barrels, as is the aging for a period of 15 to 18 months.
Blend
Merlot (90%) and Cabernet Franc (10%).
Characteristics and tasting advice for Château Fayat 2009
Tasting
Color
The color is a dark red.
Nose
Expressive, the nose combines delicious fruity and woody fragrances with peppery notes.
Palate
Creamy, the palate is seduced by its subtly toasted tannins. Throughout the tasting, fruity (plums, blackberries) and woody (oak) aromas are combined with subtle notes of spices and tobacco.
