Wine Advocate (96)The luxury cuvee from Faugeres (owned by Bernard Magrez), the 2000 Peby Faugeres is the real deal. Sadly, only 500+ cases were made of this compelling St.-Emilion. An inky/blue/purple hue is accompanied by aromas of espresso roast, blueberry liqueur, smoke, and graphite. Thick and unctuously-textured with impressive purity and depth as well as full-bodied power and richness, it needs another 2-3 years of cellaring, and should last for two decades. |

Wine Advocate (100)A perfect wine in this vintage, the 2005 Péby Faugères has the classic liqueur of blueberries and spring flowers. Dense purple and full-bodied, with unbelievable richness, this tastes like a great Napa Cab from the Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard, even though there’s no Cabernet Sauvignon in it. This is a sensational wine – rich, full and multi-dimensional, with a skyscraper-like mid-palate and finish. Kudos to Péby Faugères for producing one of the perfect wines of the vintage. Drink it in about 3-4 years as well as over the following two decades. |

Vinous - Stephen Tanzer (90-92)Ruby-red. Exotic aromas of dark cherry and coffee liqueur. Fat, sweet and densely packed, with very rich coffee liqueur and chocolate flavors complemented by burnished oak and lifted by spice. A large-scaled, sweet wine whose building tannins reach the front teeth. A second sample of equally high quality showed more fruit expression in the middle palate and finished with a firm acid spine. |

Wine Advocate (90+)The 2007 Cuvee Speciale Peby is a heavily extracted, extremely oaky effort with the wood so prominent that the fruit seems pushed to the background. There is a huge weight to the wine, which is very unusual in 2007, and there is good purity and density, but the oak is overwhelming at this point. The wine possesses outstanding concentration, and if the oak becomes better integrated, it will merit its score and then some. Patience is most definitely required as it needs at least 2-4 years of cellaring. |

Wine Advocate (95)One of the super classics of the vintage, the 2011 Peby Faugeres (100% Merlot) exhibits a dense blue/purple color as well as gorgeous aromas of acacia flowers, blueberries, raspberries and blackberries. This full-bodied, concentrated wine has more in common with a 2009 or 2010 than most 2011s. The extravagant fruit character nearly conceals some sweet tannin in this masterpiece. Drink it over the next two decades or more. |

Vinous - Ian D'Agata (88-90)Moderately saturated ruby-red. Highly nuanced, aromatic nose offers black plum, raspberry, tobacco and nutty oak. Sweet, suave and wonderfully fine-grained on entry, then a little lean in the middle owing to firm but harmonious acidity. Finishes with lingering sweet notes of cherry and currant. |

Wine Advocate (98)Produced from 100% Merlot and matured for 18 months in 65% new and 35% one-year-old French oak barrels, the 2015 Peby Faugeres is medium to deep garnet-purple in color with a strikingly gorgeous nose of exotic spices, baked blackberries, plum preserves, cherry cordial and fragrant earth with smoked meats, lavender, licorice and tapenade hints. The boldly fruited, full-bodied palate features opulent, totally decadent spiced black and blue fruits with a very firm yet ripe structure and finishes with incredible depth and length. Stefan von Neipperg consults on the vineyard management here, while Michel Rolland focuses on harvest dates, winemaking, aging and the final blend - a big bravo to them both on this 2015! |

Jeb Dunnuck (99)The 2016 Château Péby Faugères is flat-out awesome and easily up with the finest Saint-Emilion out there. Incredible notes of ripe black cherries, truffly earth, iron, graphite, and spicy oak all emerge on the nose, and it's full-bodied, with a deep, layered mid-palate, sweet tannins, and incredible length on the finish. It's made in a pure, slightly modern, nicely oaked style yet has incredible limestone-like character, flawless balance, and riveting purity of fruit. It's a gem that flirts with perfection. It's still a baby and has another two decades or more of prime drinking. |

Jeb Dunnuck (99)In the same ballpark as the 2016, 2018, and 2020, the 2019 Château Péby Faugères is another full-bodied, deep, richer Saint-Emilion that has incredible purity, voluptuous, layered aromas and flavors of black raspberries, cherries, leather, and truffly earth, perfectly integrated oak, and a remarkable sense of limestone-like minerality on the finish. The balance, as well as its richness paired with elegance, is something to behold. Drink this sensational, sexy, straight-up heavenly Saint-Emilion over the coming two decades. |
