Faugères, Coteaux du Languedoc, Languedoc, Sud de France, FranceRigaud is an AOP Faugères grown on south facing broken schist soil. The vineyard is certified organic by Ecocert, and this blend is 55/26/15 syrah/mourvèdre/grenache. The syrah spends 12 months in demi-muids while the grenache and mourvèdre spends the same time in concrete vats. Look for a floral, fragrant spicy nose. The attack is fresh with red fruit, bright acidity and mineral undertones with chalky tannins.
