The 2000 Font de la Figueras was produced from young vine Grenache, Syrah, Mourvedre, and Carignan. It exhibits an excellent deep ruby/purple color in addition to a sweet nose of black cherries and minerals, and a medium-bodied, stylish, elegant, pure style. It should drink well for 5-8 years. This is an impressive debut release from proprietors Charlotte and Christopher Cannan (better known as the high quality importer and owner of Europvin).
