16/20 La plus belle cuvée de ce négoce spécialisé dans les terroirs méditerranéens. Un vin de haute maturité, sanguin, cacaoté, opulent mais précis dans son message de terroir.

16/20 Le Faugères, libre et extraverti, possède une magnifique personnalité, dans un style opulent mais très abouti.
91/100 Offering fabulous richness, the 2011 Faugeres is ripe and up-front, with loads of red plum, ink, licorice, ground pepper and earthy/mineral qualities to go with a medium to full-bodied, voluptuous profile on the palate.
