{"product_id":"chateau-faugeres-2017","title":"Chateau Faugeres Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2016","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 2016 Château Faugères is a stunning expression of the Right Bank from a benchmark vintage, showcasing a deep, opaque purple-black colour. The nose is flamboyant and expressive, bursting with aromas of crushed black cherries, warm blueberries, and crème de cassis, layered with sophisticated nuances of violets, star anise, and cedar chest. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, offering a concentrated core of dark fruit supported by ripe, velvety tannins and a seamless line of freshness. The finish is remarkably long and fragrant, marked by lingering notes of mineral-rich earth and spice. Sourced from the estate's limestone plateau and clay-limestone slopes, it displays exceptional power and harmony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e95 Points - James Suckling\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe nose is redolent with ripe plums and dark cherries, as well as abundant red and purple flowers and a faint, blonde-tobacco edge.
