Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Peby Faugeres leaps from the glass with vibrant scents of kirsch, Black Forest cake, blueberry preserves and red roses plus nuances of charcuterie and Ceylon tea. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is chock-full of crunchy black and blue fruit flavors, framed by plush tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing long and perfumed. Not the usual, hedonic Peby Faugeres—I do love this more elegant, refreshing style! It is composed of 100% Merlot and was aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, 65% new. 10,000 bottles were made, representing 70% grand vin. Best of all, the alcohol rocks up at 14.5%—over that pesky 14% USA trade tariff threshold!

Varietal

Red Bordeaux

There are few regions in the world with stricter regulations in regards to wine production and grape varietals than those found in Bordeaux, France. Here, in the home of the world's finest wines, the type and quality of grapes used is of utmost importance, and the legendary wineries which work on the banks of the Gironde river have mastered the careful art of juice blending to find the perfect balance for their produce. Whilst there are six 'official' Bordeaux grapes, the two key varietals for almost every fine Bordeaux wine are Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, and with good reason. Whilst Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are renowned for their acidity and astringency, strong fruit and spice flavors and full body, Merlot grapes are notably rounded, soft, fleshy and lighter on tannin. The combination of these two varietals, along with a small percentage of (commonly) Petit Verdot or Cabernet Franc, is the perfect balancing act â€“ the two grape varietals cancel out each others weaker points, and accentuate all that is good about the other.

James Suckling

The polish and finesse to this wine is very impressive with medium to full body and ultra-fine tannins that caress every inch of your palate. Strong, ripe dark-berry flavors and a powerful build to the finish. Reserved and finely tannined, the wine goes on and on. Shows reserve and poise. Racy. Drink after 2022.

The 2017 Peby Faugères is a rich, textured Saint-Émilion. Inky blue and purplish fruit, menthol, lavender, spice, licorice and dried flowers infuse the 2017 with striking layers of nuance. As always, there is a ton of density and power but the 2017 is not quite as opulent as it can be, and that is not a bad thing. Raspberry jam, wild flowers, mint, blood orange and pomegranate build into the exotic, alluring finish. Tasted two times.

The inky hued 2017 Chateau Peby Faugeres comes from the older vines of the Faugeres vineyard and is all Merlot that spent 18 months in 65% new French oak. This is classic Saint-Emilion clay over limestone soils, and the wine has a beautiful bouquet of candied cherries, mulberries, violets, and flowery incense. Showing the more medium to full-bodied, elegant, upfront style of the vintage, it has terrific balance, loads of pure fruit, and is a pleasure-bent, sexy 2017 to enjoy over the coming 20 years or so.

Wine Spectator

Polished in feel, with a core of raspberry, blackberry and plum compote flavors that feel seamless as this moves along, carried by an embedded graphite note and flecked with anise and black tea details on the finish. Best from 2021 through 2032. 875 cases made.
