Tasting Notes
Robert Parker 93-95
“Made of 100% Merlot, the medium to deep garnet-purple colored 2017 Peby Faugeres opens with crushed blackcurrants, blackberry compote and plum preserves with touches of Chinese five spice and potpourri. Medium to full-bodied, the palate packs in the black fruit and spicy flavors, supported by firm yet velvety tannins and ample freshness, finishing long and spicy.”

Tasted blind. Deep ruby colour. Blood orange, vanilla and graphite on the nose. Bright, high acid, flirting with tart fruit. Awkward hard tannins are set against a floral, Parma violet sweetness. Powdery and lithe on the finish. (TP)
