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","published_at":"2023-02-08T12:04:47-05:00","created_at":"2023-01-31T10:49:12-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_France","LK3101","other_french wine","Other_Wine","Producer_Chateau Faugeres","Region_Bordeaux","Source_Hedonism0123","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Bordeaux Blend Red"],"price":433995,"price_min":433995,"price_max":433995,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":42751025741962,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2016 | Chateau Faugeres | Saint-Emilion 18L","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":433995,"weight":293928,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/51_b87b1842-bb82-4df6-bc49-7e4078ab1f73.jpg?v=1675180171"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/51_b87b1842-bb82-4df6-bc49-7e4078ab1f73.jpg?v=1675180171","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2016 | Chateau Faugeres | Saint-Emilion 18L at CaskCartel.com","id":24120154882186,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"width":600,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/51_b87b1842-bb82-4df6-bc49-7e4078ab1f73.jpg?v=1675180171"},"aspect_ratio":0.6,"height":1000,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0050\/2395\/7103\/products\/51_b87b1842-bb82-4df6-bc49-7e4078ab1f73.jpg?v=1675180171","width":600}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2016 | Chateau Faugeres | Saint-Emilion 18L\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoasting a rich, ripe-fruited profile of ripe plums and dark cherries, with minty, leather complexity, concluding on a beautifully long finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Chateau Faugeres\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRatings: \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\"\u003eWA\u003c\/span\u003e | 92 \u003cspan style=\"color: #ff2a00;\" color=\"#ff2a00\"\u003e JS\u003c\/span\u003e | 95\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2016\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 18L\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Bordeaux Blend Red\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e France, Bordeaux\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoasting a rich, ripe-fruited profile of ripe plums and dark cherries, with minty, leather complexity, concluding on a beautifully long finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #222223;\"\u003eReviews:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #9f250d;\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWine Advocate:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e The 2016 Faugeres is composed of 80% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon aged in 50% new and 50% one-year-old barrels for 15 months.
