"Faugères: Top-Notch!"

Tucade? In local dialect, it means a whim, a spur-of-the-moment idea—and above all, a top-tier red wine made from Mourvèdre and Syrah. The nose offers fresh red and black fruits and spices. On the palate, it is full-bodied, with a very long finish and impressive freshness.

About the estate:

Since the 1970s, this certified organic estate has been one of the appellation’s jewels, appearing in the Guide with unwavering consistency. Boasting a magnificent terroir of 70 small schist plots (58 hectares) that sculpt the landscape, it now benefits from the expertise of the younger generation, inherited from grandfather Jean and father Bernard Vidal, both former presidents of the appellation.
