List of products by brand CHÂTEAU FEYTIT-CLINET

Established across 6 hectares of gravelly clay on the western plateau of Pomerol, Château Feytit-Clinet stands among the dependable names of this discreet Right Bank appellation. First documented in 1825, the château spent over three decades under the stewardship of the Établissements Jean-Pierre Moueix before the Chasseuil family reclaimed it in 2000. Under Jérémy Chasseuil's direction, the estate has found a clear identity: disciplined yields of 32 to 40 hl/ha and an honest expression of Merlot with real depth and balance. At Halles Quercamps, we have selected this château for the precision of its vineyard work and the consistency it delivers across vintages. A dense, well-proportioned Pomerol rouge to explore in our Bordeaux selection.

Château Feytit-Clinet has quietly established itself as one of the more serious addresses in the Pomerol appellation, guided since 2000 by Jérémy Chasseuil across a terroir of gravelly clay that is characteristic of the western plateau of the Gironde.

A château rooted in the history of Pomerol

The earliest recorded mention of Château Feytit-Clinet dates to 1825, placing it among the most historically documented estates in the Pomerol appellation. That longevity speaks to the quality of its terroir: 6 hectares of graves sur argiles et sable — a gravelly clay and sandy subsoil that retains just enough moisture to sustain the vine through dry summers while providing excellent natural drainage. The estate sits on the western plateau of Pomerol, a position that benefits from good sun exposure and the moderating influence of the Gironde's continental microclimate.

From Moueix stewardship to family independence

From 1966 to 2000, Château Feytit-Clinet was managed by the Établissements Jean-Pierre Moueix, the celebrated Libourne négociant house responsible for shaping the modern reputation of Pomerol. Following a legal dispute, the Chasseuil family regained full control of the château in 2000, with Jérémy Chasseuil taking the helm. His approach has been methodical and unhurried: a focus on the vineyard, disciplined yields held between 32 and 40 hl/ha, and a winemaking philosophy that privileges the natural expression of the terroir over technical intervention. The result is a Pomerol that has steadily climbed in critical regard, earning its place among the appellation's reliable benchmarks.

Terroir and grape varieties

The estate is planted principally to Merlot, complemented by Cabernet Franc — a classic Pomerol blend that suits the gravelly clay soils admirably. Merlot thrives in this type of terroir, producing wines of density and roundness without sacrificing freshness. The Cabernet Franc adds structure and aromatic lift, lending the wines a precision that sets Feytit-Clinet apart from more opulent, purely Merlot-driven expressions on the plateau. Yields are kept deliberately low, ensuring concentration and complexity in the finished wine.

Why we have selected Château Feytit-Clinet

At Halles Quercamps, we look for producers who combine historical credibility with genuine present-day ambition — and Château Feytit-Clinet offers both. Jérémy Chasseuil's commitment to low yields and precise viticulture has transformed this estate into one of the most consistent performers in Pomerol, vintage after vintage. The wines are not made for spectacle; they are made for the table and for the cellar, with the kind of balance and depth that rewards patience.

We recommend these bottles to confirmed Bordeaux enthusiasts who appreciate the quieter, more intellectual side of the Right Bank — those who seek out Pomerol not for its name alone, but for what its best terroirs genuinely deliver. At the table, the château's rouge pairs beautifully with roast lamb, duck confit, or a well-aged hard cheese such as Comté.
