The estate and the wine |
|
|
The Languedoc region in France is an abounding Eldorado with a mosaic of terroirs and climates. Adored by wine lovers from all over the world, its diversity makes it truly unique. Located between the Mediterranean sea and the Massif Central mountains, on coastal plains or hillsides, the vineyards offer an impressive variety of wines from the Gard to the Pyrénées-Orientales.
The emergence of great wines at the beginning of the 90's, and the proven aging potential of the wines, started to build up the region's reputation, which is still high today. In addition to creating generous wines from a large panel of grape varieties, the region has remained extremely affordable. |

A fascinating expression of its schist terroir, the 2021 Red Faugères La Closeraie is a fresh, aromatic, and very pure wine driven by a beautiful intensity of flavor. Notes of candied fruit, spices, and smoke are coupled with a warmer echo of cocoa, black fruit, and plum. The rich structure remains perfectly digestible, surrounded by delicate tannins, an implacable success at this price. Rated 92/100 by the Committee. |
