IWC 87-90
Source International Wine Cellar
Issue Issue 96

Bright ruby. Superripe aromas of black raspberry, violet, maple syrup and sweet oak. Pliant and sweet in the mouth; dark berry flavors complicated by notes of violet, licorice and mint. Finishes with firm, building tannins that are dusty but not dry. Showing well today.

This is a big time sleeper of the vintage as well as one of the vintage's most attractively priced wines. Faugeres has turned out an opaque black/purple-colored 2000 displaying aromas of ink, blackberry liqueur, licorice, and toasty oak. Seamless, rich, and full-bodied, with even more weight and length than it revealed prior to bottling, it is a reasonably-priced, serious wine that merits attention from consumers. Delicious stuff!

Intense aromas of crushed raspberries, minerals and lilacs. Medium- to full-bodied, with firm, yet very silky tannins and a long berry and vanilla aftertaste. Very fine indeed. 8,330 cases made.

Finally this wine has aged and turned into a lovely St Emilion, good fruit/tannin/acid balance. My only reservation is that this wine was frier than any other ST Emilion I've ever tasted.

Opaque, dense, rich, full bodied and sweet berry aromas. Not a typical Bordeaux in my view, very interesting though.

A nice wine. Medium bodied with subtle flavors and a long finish. Not the flashy, fruity ripeness that is so common now.

A flawed bottle may be affected by cork taint, heat (maderized), oxidation, or excessive sulfur. Additionally, some people consider wines tainted by Brettanomyces (Brett), a non-spore forming genus of yeast, a flaw although there is much controversy surrounding the subject.
