Château de Fieuzal 2024

More austere and less luminous than recent vintages—a clear reflection of the vintage—the 2024 de Fieuzal is showing remarkably well within its context. Evoking dark berries, cassis, flowers and lead pencil, it's medium to full-bodied, sappy and layered with a delicate, precise mid-palate framed by velvety tannins and concluding with a delicate, saline finish. This blend of 45% Merlot, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon and 15% Petit Verdot has clearly benefited from Stephen Carrier’s patient “wait-for-maturity” approach.

Deep ruby, purple reflections, subtle edge brightening. Delicate red forest berry confit, nuances of raspberry and liquorice, floral notes. Silky texture, delicate red forest berry fruit, subtle acidity structure, light-footed, uncomplicated style.
