A fruity and fresh Pomerol red wine

The property

Founded in 2009, Château Fayat is the result of the merger of three properties: Prieurs de la Commanderie, La Commanderie de Mazeyres and Vieux Château Bourgneuf.

Passionate, the Fayat family conducted a rigorous study of the property's soils in 2016 to ensure the ideal management of its vineyard, giving birth to great Pomerol wines.

The vineyard

Château Fayat is a Pomerol wine from a 14-hectare terroir. The vines are planted on deep Graves with brown soils composed of sands, silts and clay.

Blend

85% merlot and 15% cabernet franc.
