Flowers, cherries, plums, truffles, licorice, and a touch of cocoa in the nose. On the palate, the wine is rich, deep, multi-layered, and multi-faceted, with a long, intense finish, packed with dark chocolate, plums, espresso, spice, and black cherries. Texturally, this is creamy and sensuous, with length and lift on the palate and the back end. You can enjoy this today, but it is only going to get better with age. Drink from 2023-2045.

Deeply colored, the wine is packed with dark chocolate-covered black fruits with strong truffle notes on the nose and palate. Concentrated, lush, rich and with a serious depth of flavor, the finish delivers with its long, supple, luscious, fruit and truffle and cocoa character and velvety tannins. Give this stunner 6-8 years in the cellar and it will really begin to shine.

When to Drink Chateau Feytit Clinet, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time

Chateau Feytit Clinet needs at least 8-12 years of aging in good vintages until it is ready to be enjoyed. Young vintages can be decanted for 2 hours or more.

This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment. Chateau Feytit Clinet offers its best drinking and should reach peak maturity between 10-30 years of age after the vintage.

Serving Chateau Feytit Clinet with Wine, Food, Pairing Tips

Chateau Feytit Clinet is best served at 15.5 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift. Chateau Feytit Clinet is best served with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised, and grilled dishes.

Chateau Feytit Clinet is also good with Asian dishes, hearty fish courses like tuna, mushrooms, and pasta.
