Chateau Faugeres 2021

A Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé renowned for its limestone terroir, Château Faugères reveals aromas of black cherry, blackberry, cassis, violet, graphite, cedar, dark chocolate, and subtle spice. Richly concentrated yet beautifully refined, it delivers velvety tannins, vibrant freshness, remarkable minerality, and a long, elegant finish with exceptional aging potential.

Food Pairing: Pair with beef tenderloin, roast lamb, duck breast, venison, mushroom risotto, truffle potatoes, aged Comté, or braised short ribs.

93 Points - James Suckling

A nice touch of fine reduction that protects the fruit and almost mingles with the oak spices, giving this a dusty feel with dulce de leche, blackberries, cassis and graphite. A crunchy, medium-bodied palate with fresh, juicy tannins and a firm, lively finish. Long, elegant and fluid. A very good expression from this lighter vintage. Drink from 2024.

93 Points - Wine Enthusiast 

Founded in 1618, this estate is on the slopes to the east of Saint-Émilion. This latest release, with its toast and red-cherry aromas, is densely structured. Blackberry fruits align with the tannins and a succulent texture to give balance, ripeness and fine potential. Drink from 2027.
