A color resembling five alive. 0range-beige wet plaster-textured head with falling leaves lacing. Evocative nose of tropical pineapple, lime, tangerine, pink grapefruit, mango, papaya. Creamy mouthfeel with razz-y bite-y parts. Earthy orange-chocolate, ginger root, savory, sarsparilla, nutmeg, tarragon. A feast of cornucopic proportion. Malty and strong. This one really toasts the bony quantum nave. Dare I say ‘it’s money!’

Green apple, pineapple, minerality and a lovely waxiness. It's clean with a sweet acidity and notes of stone fruit. Really delicate and something I'd happily drink again and again! — 5 years ago

This is really nice. Forgot what I paid but these wines are usually $13 all day long. Just a nice sipper. Buy it if you can find it. 90 points. — 5 years ago

Yes, yes, yes! This wine was an unexpected gem! Loved it and had to go back to get more. Earthy but smooth. Mouthful of flavor but subtle. Yes! — 3 years ago

"The population of Faugéres appelation is 3000...and the wine production is still under 100000 liters. That's less than 330 liters per person, which, at a litre a day, doesn't leave much room for exports. Still, you can occasionally find the reds washed up on distant shores...the red has the bony structure of vin de garde beneath a costume of sunmer fruit that flutters charmingly in its own endogenous breezes."

I give this a rather high ratings for my standards, it really came through in terms of what I was hoping g to get from it. A quite minerally, stony bony dry finish, yet a nice bit of funkiness and a raw feeling yet well made. Quite light, had it with seafood, paired really well IMO. — 6 years ago

So bony and austere. Acid is off the charts. Love it. — 7 years ago

This has put on a surprising amount of weight since release, when it was more juicy and bony. Now the fruit has taken on darker tones and a thicker, more gummy texture. In fact it was almost grapey at first but settled down into a more of a "pinotette" profile, with some of the stony / granite personality that makes Carquelin such a notable site. It does still have a slight sizzle of co2 that was hidden under the fruit at first but made this feel a little sharper as the fruit mellowed. — 10 years ago

Wednesday Wine Committee hosted by Dan. 1 sparkler, 3 whites, 4 reds and 1 dessert wine. Tasted blind as usual.

The aromatics here had me thinking Charles Heidsieck. Picking up the Reserve wine was easy as it had an oxidized/toffee-nougat driven nose. 90% is from ‘06, the remaining from ‘04 and ‘05. I guessed NV French champagne with Reserve wine base. — 7 years ago
