Thanks to Kyle Reddington. . What a great wine. Like a Southern version of Allemand. Mourvèdre funkiness, southern richness but lots of focus.

Black raspberry and sour cherry fruits mingle with game and garrigue flavors. Finely grained tannins with good length and not overwhelming alcohol on finish. A simply stunning Syrah/Mourvèdre blend from Faugeres.

Gorgeous wine...darker and more brooding than their carignan-based Faugeres, elegant and well-integrated tannic structure, tart black/purple fruits with leather and herbs to spare

2008 en 2015. Élégant comme tout pour un Languedoc qui se voudrait lourd par la mode du moment. Superbe.

Old vine Mourvèdre and a dab of Syrah. Didoer is a master of biodynamic awesome wines that few have heard of. Aged 2years this is an amazing effort. No so2 added if you can believe it. This takes me back to southern France. Flavors be damned.
