Faugères
Brilliant cherry red. The nose is a potpourri of spices, garrigue, smoked meat and small red berries. The palate opens with great freshness with fin, velvety tannins, followed by a slightly mentholated sensation, with blackberry, cherry, black olive tapenade and smoked wood, and finishing on lovely mineral notes. The 2019 vintage is faithful to the atypical and unique profile of this wine made from top quality grapes. A wine of great promise that will get better and better over time.

Malolactic fermentation occurs with the marc.
