2012 Vintage. Dark fruits, garrigue, Faugeres funk, Bootsy Collins bass solo soul, earthy goodness. Fuh-schtinkin'. Plenty of tannins; hide in a dark, cool place for a couple years. Very good. Rebuy.

Ok my peoples, it's bad man time. Baked figs on the schnozzle, but not as heavy as that suggests once you get your laughing gear around it. That's some balanced-ass shit right there.

Maybe some bottle shock. There's a prickly party on my palate.

Very good Faugeres. Stinks a Little in The nose. Dark fruit, garrigues and some smoke, strong tannins, still juicy. Natural wine without added sulfur.
