The 2014 Fayat is quite bold and savory, with plenty of black cherry, sage, lavender, new leather and juniper berry nuances. The flavors are vibrant and direct in an immediate if somewhat quirky Pomerol that will drink well relatively early. The fresh, cool style of the year is quite evident.

Ringing with anise, earth, herbs, espresso and dark cherry notes, this wine is soft, medium to full-bodied and already approachable. For 2014, the wine was produced from 100% Merlot and reached 13.5% alcohol with pH of 3.8. 88-89 Pts

The Château Fayat 2014 has a slightly smudged bouquet compared to its peers, though it gains delineation in the glass and musters light floral scents. The palate is sweet and ripe on the entry with bold, soy-tinged red fruit, but it feels rather over-egged on the finish.

Red fruit with integrated vanilla oak. Lighter weight and structure but clean and ripe. Tannins well-handled. Drink: 2018-2024 (86)

Blackish purple. Some vaguely mineral skein running through this wine. And nicely managed fruit that dominates the well-tamed tannins. Though there is no hiding from the acidity. Impressive persistence.

88-91 / 100

par James Molesworth le 31/03/2015

A solid, direct style, with a core of plum and raspberry pâte de fruit liberally laced with red licorice accents. The licorice edge holds sway through the finish. Should
be a crowd-pleaser when finished.

Expressif au nez comme en bouche avec une allonge épicée.

GaultMillau

15,5 / 20

Floral, violette, cassis avec une belle prise de bois. Nez charmeur et fruité. Rond, souple, avec une réelle tension en bouche qui apporte une certaine rectitude et des notes acidulées. Finale aérienne.
