I would have liked to have seen more vigour in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with an edgy opening. More herbaceous than expected, it almost seems there was a bit of stem addition à la Les Carmes! It does cohere a little in the glass, so I am intrigued to see how it shows in bottle, though I remain prudent with my score for now. 2028 - 2037\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e90\/92\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeal Martin, vinous.com, May 2026\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2025 de Fieuzal, harvested between September 4 and 26, is a blend of 50% Cabernet Sauvignon, 40% Merlot and 10% Petit Verdot. It wafts from the glass with aromas of cassis, mulberries, wisteria and flowers. Medium- to full-bodied, layered and precise, it’s built around a fleshy core of fruit framed by velvety, finely grained tannins and concludes with a long, ethereal and perfumed finish. More structured than usual, it remains well balanced, supported by lively acidity and a subtle, gastronomic bitterness on the finish. It's a classical expression and one of the more compelling values in Bordeaux this year.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e94\/96\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eYohan Castaing, Wine Advocate, April 2026\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Charlie","offers":[{"title":"6 Bottle Case 6x75cl","offer_id":57156197515637,"sku":null,"price":140.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0131\/6713\/2731\/files\/deFieuzal2024_Pessac-Leognan.png?v=1745415266","url":"https:\/\/www.finewinedirect.co.uk\/products\/de-fieuzal-2025-pessac-leognan","provider":"Fine Wine Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
