Tasting Notes and Food Pairing Suggestions

  • Cinnamon-spiced lamb and white bean stew
  • Roasted beef tenderloin crusted with fennel and coriander seeds
  • Grilled sirloin steaks with rosemary

This sleek, sexy Faugères glides over the palate weightlessly, showing ripe black cherry and black raspberry fruit, exotic spice, and delicate violet aromas. Extremely satiny, elegant, and focused. A major steal!
