      Detailed Description

      The weather was highly variable all year long, marked by hot, dry months of August and September, ensuring very good ripening of the grapes and guaranteeing a perfect state of health right up to the harvests. In addition the skins were very thick, providing very high marc/juice ratios resulting in wines with lots of colour, rich and very mature tannins, with extraordinary fruit. Harvesting are on 3 and 5 October. The winemaker preferred to make the most of the last days of sun to perfect the ripeness of the grapes. Pure, intense and floral with chalky notes, black truffle, ginger, blackberry, cassis and roasted coffee. Very dense and concentrated palate but well-balanced with grainy tannin, layers of crushed fruit, a fresh backbone, integrated oak and a very long muscular finish.

      Reviews:

      • Wine Advocate: The 2016 Peby Faugeres (100% Merlot aged for 18 months in 65% new French oak barriques) has a medium to deep garnet-purple color. Wow—it slides sensuously out of the glass with scents of candied violets, Chinese five spice and chocolate box over a core of baked plums, black cherry compote and warm black raspberries plus wafts of new leather and menthol. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is decadently spicy, with bags of black fruit preserves framed by plush tannins, finishing with a refreshing lift.
      • James Suckling: Intense black olives and blackberries on the nose with forest fruit and black truffles. Full-bodied, yet tight and focused with ultra-fine tannins and a savory, salty and juicy finish. Needs four to five years to open.

      Producer Information

      Château Péby Faugères is a stand-alone vineyard in Saint-Émilion, located inside the larger Château Faugères property. The property – treated as distinct from Faugères – has been classified as a Grand Cru Classé since 2012, and is notable for its rich, opulent red wine made from Merlot. The 2005 vintage earned a 100-point rating from Robert Parker of The Wine Advocate in 2015. Until 1987, all the wine produced by Château Faugères was sold to a local negociant. In 1987, Pierre-Bernard (Péby) Guisez inherited the estate and began to focus on quality. In 1998, a wine was made from the best parcel of old vines in the vineyard to commemorate his passing. Today, Péby Faugères is considered to be the garage wine counterpart of Faugères. The Péby Faugères vineyard covers 7.5 hectares (18.5 acres) of clay-limestone soils and is planted entirely to Merlot. The wines are made at the modern winery that is shared with Faugères. After manual harvesting, the fruit is fermented partly in barrel and partly in wooden conical vats, and aged in new French oak barrels for 18 months. Around 12,000 bottles of the grand vin are released each year, and in some years the estate also makes a second wine, Le Merle de Péby Faugères. Since 2000, both Faugères and Péby Faugères have steadily grown in reputation. In 2005, both were purchased by Swiss businessman Silvio Denz, the owner of Lalique and a number of Bordeaux estates, including Sauternes' Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey.
