About Chateau Jean Faux Les Sources 750ML
Chateau Jean Faux Les Sources is a refined Bordeaux Supérieur from the Right Bank, crafted predominantly from Merlot with Cabernet Franc support. On the nose, it opens with generous aromas of ripe black cherry, crushed violet, and warm plum, underpinned by a whisper of cedar and damp forest floor. The palate is supple and well-structured, delivering layers of dark fruit — blackcurrant, black plum — alongside subtle notes of graphite, dried herbs, and a touch of vanilla from careful oak aging. The tannins are polished and integrative, lending elegance rather than grip, while bright acidity keeps the wine lively and food-friendly. The finish is long and graceful, with lingering notes of dark fruit, earthy minerality, and a faint trace of mocha.
