Domaine Leon Barral is one of the best producers in Faugeres and has been at the forefront of a move to more traditional farming methods.  The wines have become highly sought after - classic, traditionally made wines with plenty of character that age gracefully.

"Slightly more polished and fine, the 2010 Faugeres Jadis comes from south-facing slopes and is a blend of 50% Carignan, 30% Syrah and 20% Grenache that spends 24-26 months in 10% new barrels. Layered and perfumed on the nose, with fabulous plum pit, leather, violets, assorted spices and dusty minerality, it is full-bodied, seamless and elegant on the palate, with impressive polish to its tannin. Concentrated with excellent texture and length, it will have 10-15 years of longevity. Drink 2014-2029."  Jeb Dunnuck, The Wine Advocate
