Chateau Fayat 2019

A seductive Pomerol red wine with a fruity expression and freshness

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.

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

The vineyard

This Pomerol property oversees a 14-hectare terroir, with 10.35 hectares in production. The vines, averaging 25 years old, are planted on deep Graves soils composed of brown sands, silts, and clay.

Vinification and aging

Following the harvest, the grapes undergo vinification in stainless steel tanks. Aging lasts 12 months, with 80% in barrels (50% new, 50% one wine) and 20% in tanks, amphorae, vegetable polymer egg, and wine globe.

Blend

Merlot (100%).
