A ripe, rich red that delivers loads of crushed-berry, chocolate and walnut character…” – <strong>James Suckling</strong><br /></em></p> <p>Château Faugeres er med sin smukke, arkitekttegnede hovedbygning et slot man lægger mærker til på sin vej gennem Saint-Èmilion. Men selvom arkitekturen er moderne, så er det et slot med traditioner og Château Faugeres kunne således i 2019 fejre deres 400-års jubilæum. Imponerende!  </p> <p>Lige så imponerende er slottet vinfremstilling, hvor de plot for plot høstet og vinificerer de 42 hektar vinmarker, der ligger placeret på et 80 meter højt ler- og kalkstensplateau. Syd og sydøst-vendt orientering giver druerne masser af sol og du kan forvente dig en tætpakket Cru Classé med sorte kirsebær, blommer, solbær og florale strejf samt luksuriøse fadkrydderier fra 14 måneder på 50 % nye barrique-fade.</p> <p>Årgang 2020 er noget af det bedste Chateau Faugeres har præsteret og til denne pris et kæmpe Cru Classé-scoop!</p> <p><em>Obs.

Good length.”</em></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>94-95/100 James Suckling</strong></em></span><em><br />"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."</em></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>94-95/100 Bernard Burtschy</strong></em></span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>93-95/100 Jeb Dunnuck</strong></em></span><br /><em>"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."</em></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>94/100 Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider</strong></em></span><br /><em>"</em> <em>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 finish.”</em></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>94/100 The Wine Independent</strong></em></span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>94/100 Tastingbook.com</strong></em></span></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>94/100 Markus Del Monego MW</strong></em></span><em><br />"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."  </em></p> <h2><span style="font-size: 14px;"><strong>Om Château Faugères</strong></span></h2> <p><strong><em>Grand Vin: </em></strong><em>Château Faugères Saint Èmilion Grand Cru Classé  <br /><strong>2. </strong></em><strong><em>Vin:</em></strong><em> Calice de Faugères<br /><strong>Beliggenhed:</strong>  Saint-Étienne-de-Lisse (Saint-Èmilion)<br /><strong>Beplantet areal: </strong>42<strong> </strong>ha <br /><strong>Plantede druesorter: </strong>85 % Merlot, 10 % Cabernet Franc og 5 % Cabernet Sauvignon<br /><strong>Fadmodning: </strong>14 mdr. på 50 % nye Taransaud-fade og 50 % brugte.  </em></p>
