The complexity and freshness of a red Pomerol wine
The estate
Founded in 2009, Château Fayat is the result of a merger between three estates : Prieurs de la Commanderie, La Commanderie de Mazeyres and Vieux Château Bourgneuf.
The vineyard
Fayat family, passionate about their business, conducted a comprehensive study of the estate's soils in 2016 to ensure best practices for its vineyard to produce great Pomerol wines. Château Fayat looks after a 14-hectare terroir of which 10.35 hectares are in production. Spread over 31 plots, the vines are 25 years old on average and are planted on deep Graves with brown soils composed of sand, silt and clay.
