Cuvée Pierres Rouges Marcillac Mansois

So ssl spicy and peppery! Medium bodied, not tannic, very drinkable but interesting. Stays with you long after the bottle is empty. — 9 years ago

Lightness and fun leads. Toast and nuts follow. So like a lightly catered cocktail party in a wine. — 5 years ago

Castel Fossibus Faugères Mourvedre Blend 2014

The notes below are all from the Grand Fete de Saint-Jean in Faugeres (well, this year it was in Laurens, which was a bit of a shame as Faugères itself is a stunning place with a great atmosphere). My general impression was that this appellation is going from strength to strength - it will be interesting to see where it will be in 10 years’ time. The wines were all generally of a very high level (the best from the producers that attended are listed below); from the most traditional bottlings to the more modern efforts (though even the most modern is by no means an ‘international’ wine). I’ve been coming here for more than a decade and the wines were very good back then as well. However, now there is clearly more of a sense of pride in the terroir and finely tuned craftsmanship across the board. There are a few older producers that have always made stunning wines but joining their ranks recently are a bunch of young winemakers who have discovered the untapped potential of the region. Definitely an AOP to watch out for!

Slightly disappointed that they didn’t bring out the current vintage of Fossibus but can understand why, as the oak tends to dominate for a few years. This is in a better place right now; the oak is more integrated and, although I preferred the GR (below) for current drinking, this will probably be in a better place in 10-12 years’ time.

Le Haut Faugères Red Blend 2012

A little bit of everything... smoke, fruit, oak, herbs, even a tiny bit of earth. Low acidity but a good medium full body. I like this. — 10 years ago

l'Ardoise Faugères Red Blend 2012

The cork foil started to bulge so I expedited drinking. It was perfect. Saved in the nick of time. It was 8 bucks at Costco. I don't know how long it was on the shelf at home. If I see it again I'll buy more. — 11 years ago
