Faugères - Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2020

The limestone plateau and limestone-clay hillsides which make up this estate require exacting standards. At Faugères, close attention is paid to the development of the growth cycle.
The teams, who have been working at the estate for many years, use the entirely natural methods of sustainable viticulture. They support and listen to the vines, allowing them to achieve ideal levels of ripeness every year.

The winery designed by the architect Mario Botta, now an iconic part of the estate and the appellation, overlooks the rows of vines. Five centuries separate this facade with its simple yet sculptural geographic lines from the picturesque atmosphere of the Chartreuse de Faugères, built in the 16th century as a hunting lodge and enjoying the same view. As well as being a remarkable work of architecture, the winery is also a technological tool designed for cuttingedge winemaking.

Truffles, cocoa, dark red fruits, licorice and spice create a perfume that wants to get noticed. On the palate, the wine is rich, lush, concentrated, deep and polished. Yet, it is balanced by its freshness, lift and elegance that makes everything work here from start to the vibrant, cocoa, plum and spice-box infused finish. Drink from 2024-2050.

Lots of mulled cherries, blueberries, iron, and bouquet garni emerge from the 2020 Château Faugeres, a rich, focused, yet fruit-loaded barrel sample that has a good sense of purity and elegance. I was able to taste two bottles, both showing medium to full-bodied richness, with one having slightly more precision. Both showed great mid-palates, and this is certainly a beautiful wine in the making. Two to four years should do it well and it’s going to have two decades of longevity.

Intense purple colour with violet hue and black core. Opulent and aromatic nose reminiscent of blackberries, crème de cassis, with strawberries, mild spices and dark chocolate. On the palate rich yet elegant character with good tension, well balanced wth a juicy fruit, ripe tannins and elegant acidity. Fruit lingering in the aftertaste, convincing length and aromatic depth.

The 2020 Faugeres offers ripe black plum and boysenberry fruit on the nose, which is extravagant and verging on ostentatious, though somehow it maintains focus and delineation. The palate is medium-bodied with red cherries, boysenberry, cola and light allspice notes on the entry. Well balanced with impressive depth toward the fleshy finish, leaving a lick of dark chocolate on the aftertaste. This is a fine Faugeres that should be afforded 4–5 years in bottle.

Always a concentrated wine and with low 23hl/ha yields it is expectedly so. This translates as intense charred oak on the nose, but they have done a good job of balancing it with ripe berry fruit alongside liquorice and black chocolate. Sleek and confident with clear depth. Another wine that shows the success of Cabernet Sauvignon in the right places of St-Emilion.

Dark in color, the black cherry, flower, licorice, plum liqueur and espresso nose jumps out in front. On the palate, the wine is opulent, rich, full-bodied, deep and concentrated. The perfectly ripe fruit is dark, opulent and polished with velvety textures, length and volume on the mid-palate and finish. 93-95

Deep purple-black colored, the 2020 Faugères stampedes out of the glass with a herd of powerful black fruit notes: blackberry pie, baked black plums and ripe, juicy black cherries, plus hints of wild mushrooms, damp soil, tar and star anise with a waft of tobacco. The full-bodied palate is chock-full of black fruit preserves, framed by ripe, rounded tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing long and earthy.

Tiefdunkles Rubingranat, opaker Kern, violette Reflexe, zarter Ockerrand. Fruchtig, reife Pflaumen, frische schwarze Kirschen, etwas Nougat, einladendes Bukett. Saftig, süße Waldbeerfrucht, frisch strukturiert, präsente Tannine, mineralisch im Abgang, zitronig-salzig im Rückgeschmack, gutes Entwicklungspotenzial.

A ripe, rich red that delivers loads of crushed-berry, chocolate and walnut character, as well as fine tannins through the center palate. Layered texture.
