Lot Details
"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." - Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (5/20/2021), Ratings: 91-93, Drink: 2025-2040 Note: Cellared in a temperature controlled cellar since purchase
