Mas Nicholas "Coingcidence" AOP Faugères 2018

Wonderful example of a truly intense and jammy Faugères. The Carignan is the star here. And not just any old carignan: a parcel that was planted in 1901! That means very low yields but exceptional intensity of fruit and this wine is full of brambly Carignan notes as well as garrigue spices and blackcurrant and well-managed Syrah tannins.
