Château Faugères, Saint-Émilion, Grand Cru Classé 2018 Bordeaux Red Wine

 


Château Faugères, Saint-Émilion, Grand Cru Classé 2018 Bordeaux Red Wine, $46.32-$54.49, 93 points, poured core black grading to a deep pomegranate red with heavy stained legs and a moderately broad clear wine ring.
Aromas of cinnamon, ripe black raspberries, cedar box, and Arabica toffee were excellent.
The 2018 Château Faugères was a dry full-bodied red wine with good acidity, firm grainy tannins, and rich fruity flavors with mint, red pepper, a bit of wood, herbal, and showing hints of tarragon and fennel.
Finished quite long on its spiciness, tartness, and a big but balanced 14.5% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with my prosaic cheeseburger with blue cheese tomatoes and kalmata olives.
