Faugères enjoys a Mediterranean climate, characterised by hot, dry summers, and mild winters with low rainfall. The climate is influenced by the surrounding mountains and the Tramontane and Marin winds. The soil in the estate's vineyards is dominated by ancient schist with good drainage and the vines are farmed with an organic ethos. The main grapes grown are the black-skinned Grenache , Syrah and Mourvèdre varieties.

All grapes are hand harvested and naturally fermented. The resulting wines are bottled unfiltered and unfined. Paul and Isla have put a strong emphasis on crafting wines that express the soils and climate of their vineyards.
