Passion TwilEstimated delivery between 5 and Dec 7,
Fruity and intense, Château Fayat is characterized by aromatic finesse and elegance: berries, ripe fruit, woody and roasted notes. A structured, balanced wine that delicately envelops the palate, with fine, precise tannins and lovely freshness. Generous, it seduces with an ample, silky finish. It can be kept for at least ten years, but can also be enjoyed young if well aerated.
"The very Libourne grape varieties (85% Merlot, complemented by Cabernet Franc) give us a great Pomerol for laying down, very colorful, concentrated on the nose and palate. The deep nose is bursting with ripe red fruit combined with toasty, chocolatey oak. Warm and ample, the palate is supported by a framework of liquorice tannins. This wine will benefit from a little ageing.
Appearance
The Pomerol's dress is most often dark ruby and purple hues in its youth and an appearance of brick hues with aging.
Aroma
The bouquet is often very rich and complex with notes of black and red fruits. Also note the presence of empyreumatic with leather, roasting and a vanilla tip.

Taste
The tannins of the Pomerols are rather robust, we will wait a certain maturity to find a perfectly balanced wine. Note the presence of ripe black fruits including blackcurrant, and sometimes truffle.
