I can understand the rustic, and sure understand the tannins. I've always expected the Faiveley, and especially the Myglands to have a sturdiness to them. Not a lack of finesse, because there's that, but a sort of non-perfumey, solid berry fruit, thick skinned grape kind of character, that would hold up to heavier foods, with lots of richness and fat.
All the Faiveley used to be great bargains years ago. Not so much now, of course, as they've firmly established their reps. Still, they feature fondly in my memories.

...though obviously, not the deal that it was several years back, when you could pick up all those wines but the Ducs for <$50.
