  • Neal Martin, June 2017, Score: 90

    Tasted blind at Farr Vintners 2007 Bordeaux tasting. The 2007 De Fieuzal might be one of the unheralded gems of this overlooked vintage, attested here in blind conditions. It has an open and airy bouquet with perfumed red berry fruit laced with wilted rose petals. The palate is crisp and chalky on the entry. The acidity is nicely judged, well focused with plenty of truffle-tinged, lithe red berry fruit on the finish. This is a delightful, easygoing de Fieuzal with a modicum of class. Tasted March 2015. 90/100. Drink 2015-2025

  • Robert Parker, April 2010, Score: 87

    Plum, red and black currants, soy, earth, and oak aromas jump from the glass of this dark ruby/plum-colored wine. Low acidity, light tannin, and medium body are pleasant as well as well-balanced. Drink it over the next decade. Drink: 2010 - 2020

Producer

Château de Fieuzal

Ch de Fieuzal is found in the Graves near the village of Leognan, not far from the vineyards of Domaine de Chevalier and Malartic-Lagraviere. On a run of good form since the mid-1980s both their white and red wines are consistently high quality, yet remain relatively good value.

Region

Pessac-Léognan

Stretching from the rather unglamorous southern suburbs of Bordeaux, for 50 km along the left bank of the river Garonne, lies Graves. Named for its gravelly soil, a relic of Ice Age glaciers, this is the birthplace of claret, despatched from the Middle Ages onwards from the nearby quayside to England in vast quantities. It can feel as though Bordeaux is just about red wines, but some sensational white wines are produced in this area from a blend of sauvignon blanc, Semillon and, occasionally, muscadelle grapes, often fermented and aged in barrel. In particular, Domaine de Chevalier is renowned for its superbly complex whites, which continue to develop in bottle over decades. A premium appellation, Pessac-Leognan, was created in 1987 for the most prestigious terroirs within Graves. These are soils with exceptional drainage, made up of gravel terraces built up in layers over many millennia, and consequently thrive in mediocre vintages but are less likely to perform well in hotter years. These wines were appraised and graded in their own classification system in 1953 and updated in 1959, but, like the 1855 classification system, this should be regarded with caution and the wines must absolutely be assessed on their own current merits.
