1999 Faugeres

Pure, sweet fruit marks this medium-bodied, attractive, well-balanced St.-Emilion. It offers abundant quantities of black cherry and currant fruit infused with toasty wood and mineral nuances. The wine possesses sweet tannin and adequate acidity. It can be consumed now and over the next decade. Wine Advocate.April, 2002

Deep ruby-red. Perfumed, floral aroma of kirsch and blackberry, plus a suggestion of stewed fruit. Juicy, snappy black cherry flavor; a rather chunky wine, with good sweetness and stuffing. Tannins are ripe.
