Château de Fieuzal
If there is such a thing as a bank in the Graves appellation, it is Château de Fieuzal, with an excellent red Cru de Graves and an equally outstanding white wine, albeit a much rarer one.
Great white Pessac Leognan has been produced here for years. And this is probably the best value for money in the appellation. Fascinating when young with razor-sharp but ripe acidity and wonderfully dignified and elegant with age ... just think of the legendary 1992 vintage, which is still so fresh and delicate today.The 2020 is certainly a little more opulent due to the character of the vintage, but it wouldn't be Fieuzal if they hadn't turned it into a grandiose white wine with breathtaking finesse and tremendous tension.The white fruit flavours and salty minerality reveal the full potential of Château Fieuzal!
