The estate's Saint-Émilion Grand Cru wine is a blend of typically 85 percent Merlot, 10 percent Cabernet Franc and 5 percent Cabernet Sauvignon and is produced with the help of consultant oenologist Michel Rolland. The Esquissaud family became the proprietors of both Châteaux Faugères and Péby Faugères in 1823. Up until the late 1980s, the estate only sold its wines to a single local merchant. This all changed in 1987 when Château Faugères was inherited by Pierre-Bernard Guisez who set out to create wines worthy of Saint-Emilion Grand Cru Classé status. In 2005, the estate was purchased by luxury goods moghul Silvio Denz (owner of several French wineries including Château Lafaurie-Peyraguey in Sauternes, as well as Montepeloso in Tuscany and Clos d'Agon in Spain). Château Faugères consists of 37 hectares (91 acres) of cultivated vineyard planted to 85 percent Merlot, 10 percent Cabernet Franc and 5 percent Cabernet Sauvignon. The vines sit atop a limestone plateau, on south- to southeast-facing slopes farmed using natural sustainable viticultural practices. The estate's Saint-Émilion Grand Cru is sourced from vines averaging 35 years old. Alongside its grand vin, Château Faugères makes a second wine – Haut Faugères – from younger vines. This second wine was first released in 2004 and now 40,000 bottles are produced annually (alongside around 65,000 bottles of the \"grand vin\", or main label).\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"CaskCartel.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42866897584266,"sku":"","price":140.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/74_329da874-78d8-40a0-bc39-dfaefe28ee21.png?v=1679586663","url":"https:\/\/caskcartel.com\/en-lu\/products\/2019-chateau-faugeres-saint-emilion","provider":"CaskCartel.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
