The Château Fieuzal estate has a history dating back four centuries and is one of the jewels of the Graves wine region. Their wines are amongst the most esteemed and were ranked among the Crus Classés for red wine in the 1953 & 1959 Classification of Graves wines. Irishman Lochlann Quinn purchased the estate in 2001, making this the 20th vintage under his stewardship.

Potential Drinking Window 2024-2030

"A lovely rich tone to the nose here, concentrated and lively. Freshly picked cherry and strawberry fruit give a hit of sharp, brightness before the chalky texture envelops the palate and curtails the forward motion. The acidity is excellent and this has the potential to be quite lively but the structure is taking the fore at the moment with an austerity that brings the wine to a close fairly swiftly though the minerality and coolness gives a long impressive finish. Well constructed with polish and lots of potential. 5% Petit Verdot completes the blend."
