Product Description

Overview

Winery: Mas des Capitelles

Mas des Capitelles Faugeres Vieilles Vignes  is made from 50% Mourvedre, 25% Carignan and 25% Syrah

Deep inky color in the glass. Aromas of raspberry, cherry and hints of vanilla round out the nose. Medium to full-bodied and very well structured with ripe chewy tannins. Flavors of peppery humus, cherry and hints of leather flow towards a lengthy & spicy finish.

Manual harvest. 
Unfiltered and minimum use of SO2. 
Long vating 30 days 
Average yield is 25 hl/ha.
The Carignan vines are 80 years old in average.

Delicious with lamb and grilled vegetable.


Review:

"Just about overflowing with character, the 2018 Faugères Vieilles Vignes (Mourvèdre, Carignan, and Syrah) reveals a ruby/purple hue as well as great nose of flowery incense, garrigue, licorice, ground pepper, and black cherries. This carries to a medium to full-bodied, rounded, supple Faugères with some obvious minerality, impressive fruit, and some firm underlying tannins. It needs a year or so for the tannins to soften, but it's a delicious drink already."
