Chateau Jean Faure

At the very top of the Bordeaux wine ranking system, Château Jean Faure’s terroir is the same as that of the greatest crus classes of Saint–Emilion. Less than 100 meters from Château Cheval Blanc, the 18-hectare square vineyard forms a magic enclave, where nature has once again taken the stage. Château Jean Faure shares with its most prestigious peers, the force offered by clay-laden terroirs, where Cabernet Franc draws exceptional energy.

The wine offers deep, juicy plums, espresso, licorice, truffle flowers. Silky, elegant, fresh and lively, with a lifted, dried red pit fruit and floral finish, give this a few years before popping a cork, and it will show even better.
