spicy dish

Faithful to the typical Faugères character, the Cuvée Prestige expresses itself with power and finesse. The Vieilles Vignes de Carignan contribute power and concentrated black fruit, spice and garrigue. The full-bodied palate is built on tannins that are still firm but have great potential. Finally, empyreumatic notes from barrel-aging Syrah guide us to a tasty and pleasant finish. A very pretty bottle!
