It's like drinking a barnyard (in the best way)

Lighter than barral. Lovely thought. Light but evident tannins. Hits all the right notes softly.

90% Mourvèdre and the rest Grenache bush vines. 500 meters, the highest elevation of Faugeres.

Cmon baby light my fire. I little lighter than I prefer. But good with spicy food or hard aged cheeses. I ate with spicy almonds too. Delish.

Light and graceful. Raspberry, currant, garrigue. Like a wind that just blew in from the field. Great stuff from #winetraditions

Difficult to find and not an every day wine. Mas d'Alezon Faugeres 'Monfalette' 2013 is in the border of we may consider a natural wine: very little sulphur added, biodynamic unfiltered, fermented with spontaneous yeast in concrete vessels using 'foot piegage' and neutral oak. Old -school - low intervention farming and winemaking. Gamey - earthy -clyish aromas with light body (only 12.5 abv) but showing a second layer of complexity with spicy notes. 90%Mourvedere - 10% Grenache. Welcome to the real Languedoc-Roussillon wines!!

Earthy, funky. Dry, but with some fruit. Tasty.
