JAMES SUCKLING: "Incredible aromas of blackberries, blueberries, minerals and stone. Wow. Full-bodied, silky and firm. So polished. Sexy. Drink in 2022."

WEINWISSER: "Sattes Purpur-Granat, dicht in der Mitte, lila Schimmer aussen. Geniales Bouquet, das Nasenbild weist eine rahmige Fülle auf, herrlich viel dunkle Waldbeeren und auch eine ganz verführerische Cassisnote ist enthalten. Im Gaumen ist dieser sehr elegante Wein voller Charme und gebündelter Textur. Und so genial klingt er auch aus. Es ist also möglich, sehr aromatische Weine zu produzieren, ohne dass gleich die Tannine den Hauptteil des Weines darstellen. Damit meine ich ein paar extrahierte Nachbarn. Wer diesen Wein kauft, wird in etwa acht Jahren ausflippen."

ANTONIO GALLONI: "Large-scale, dramatic and intense, the 2014 Faugères is exceptionally beautiful and polished. Succulent red cherry, plum and pomegranate notes make a strong first impression. Sweet floral notes, spice and new leather add aromatic nuance throughout. This is an especially effortless wine with all of its elements in the right place."

WINEADVOCATE: " The 2014 Faugeres still has bundles of red plum and juniper berry on the nose, if anything even more generous than when I tasted it a few months ago. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, superb structure and well judged acidity. It merges with more black fruit towards the finish and has palpable energy on the finish - still excellent.

WINE CELLAR INSIDER: "The wine is approachable and easy to like. Lush, forward and filled with ripe, juicy plum, chocolate-covered cherry and licorice tones."

WINESPECTATOR: "Sports a lively core of bramble, blackberry and black currant, with good licorice and fruitcake notes filling in behind. Presents some slightly rambunctious energy but should settle in soon enough. Best from 2018 through 2028. 6,665 cases made."
