Chateau Peby Faugeres 2022 delivers a lush, deeply concentrated expression of pure Merlot, packed with black cherry, plum and redcurrant fruit wrapped in layers of dark chocolate, mocha and spice. The palate is dense yet polished, with powerful but velvety tannins and a vibrant line of acidity that keeps this rich, modern Saint-Émilion vibrant rather than heavy, promising considerable complexity as the oak and structure knit over time.
Dry-aged ribeye with porcini mushrooms; Lamb shank braised in red wine; Truffle-infused beef bourguignon

Château Péby-Faugères is a small, single‑parcel Saint‑Émilion Grand Cru Classé focused on old‑vine Merlot planted on a clay‑limestone slope; produced in very limited quantities, it’s prized for dense, mineral‑tinged dark‑fruit concentration, velvety tannins and long ageing potential. Now owned by Silvio Denz, the estate is known for its Lalique‑engraved bottles, a modern winery by Mario Botta and a recent shift to organic/biodynamic viticulture that underscores its terroir‑driven, artful style.
