89/100 One of the more exciting appellations in Languedoc, Faugères produces wines of considerable depth and flavor. This wine is no exception, displaying solid tannins coupled with juicy red fruits. It’s an elegant wine with ripe fruit tempered by a cool, restrained element. — R.V.
88/100 This Syrah-dominated blend is ripe, highly perfumed and has a lively mineral character. A ripe and vibrant wine flavored with dense, red fruits. — R.V.
87/100 A sophisticated, elegant wine with dusty tannins and new wood flavors of new wood and dark plum fruit. Fresh rather than powerful; drink now and over the next 18 months. — R.V.
86/100 A simple, fresh, fruity wine. Ripe Cinsault gives it some weight, but Syrah’s dark fruits spiced with pepper and herbal notes prevail. — R.V.
88/100 A ripe, juicy charmer of a wine, aromatic and perfumed. Raspberry flavors, acidity and soft tannins come together and are underpinned by flavors of new wood and sweetness. — R.V.
88/100 Packed with bramble, black plums, and leathery, dense tannins, this is strong stuff. Bitter cocoa flavors and pepper show the ripeness and firmness of the wine, which, at 14.5% alcohol, is no lightweight. —R.V.
87/100 This is big in all senses. It has dense, very rich, very powerful fruit and as a consequence of that, it has 14.5% alcohol. It’s finely perfumed, with black and violet flavors and aromas, and some good, spicy flavors. —R.V.
17.5/20 Lighter colour than most. Rich and slighty treacly – very appealing on the nose. Round and very fruity. Extremely soft with dry edges. Lovely for current drinking with a very mineral edge. Lots of character. 13.5%
