From Saint-Emilion
Vintage: | 2019 |
---|---|
Description: | 97 Jd / 97 JS / 96 Wci. The flagship from this estate, the 2019 Château Péby Faugères is all Merlot from the eastern part of the appellation, brought up in a mix of new and used barrels. Its deep purple color is followed by a beautiful perfume of redcurrants, mulberries, new leather, tobacco, chocolate, and lead pencil shavings. It's full-bodied and concentrated on the palate, has building yet polished tannins, a liqueur of rocks-like minerality, and a great finish. It's beautifully done and not far off the heavenly 2018 and 2016. It's already accessible, yet smart money will give bottles just 3-4 years, and it's going to evolve for 20 years or more. The balance, complexity, and length are spot on. Bravo. - Jeb Dunnuck A round, juicy wine with blackberry, dried-tobacco, chocolate and stone character. Full and layered with chewy tannins and a finish with attractive fruit and wood complexity. Needs plenty of time to soften and come together. Try after 2025.- James Suckling |
