Château Faurie de Souchard (St. Émilion Grand Cru)
The debut vintage for the new owners, the Dassault family is medium bodied, and focused on its red fruits, smoke and vanilla, espresso character. Forward, and soft, the wine feels like its trying just a bit too much in this vintage. With time, if the oak melds deeper into the wine, this could be a much better experience. 2,375 Views Tasted Mar 12, 2018Medium bodied, with an earthy espresso and cherry character, the wine is round, soft, but a little pushed and has some dryness, in the licorice, oak and red berry finish.

With it's terroir, subsequent vintages will probably be better. 2,594 Views Tasted Nov 22, 2017Medium-bodied with the unusual essence of seaweed added to herbal, cherry nose, this wine shows an oak and cherry finish. 2,285 Views Tasted Apr 29, 2016 |
