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."
