The 2017 Figeac is magnificent. Beautifully layered and exquisite in the glass, the 2017 possesses remarkable balance and harmony from the very first taste. An utterly beguiling, captivating wine, the 2017 simply has it all. Bright, red-toned fruit, mint, spice, lavender and rose petal overtones flesh out in the glass, but above all else, Figeac is a wine of total harmony. The Grand Vin includes 10% second generation fruit. Even so, production is down around 50%.

Tasting Notes: The 2019 Château-Figeac exudes a deep, medium ruby red color, revealing a complex bouquet of red soft-fruit, redcurrant, and a rich underlay of chocolate. The palate is adorned with delicate raspberry and strawberry notes, enhanced by fresh acidity and a backbone of cedar and toasty oak. The finish is robust, featuring fine tannins and attractive leafy touches, ensuring a wine that not only entices but also promises great aging potential.

Blend and Winemaking: This stellar vintage boasts a blend of 30% Merlot, 34% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 36% Cabernet Franc, meticulously harvested and crafted to highlight the unique terroir of St-Emilion. Matured in oak barrels, the wine achieves a perfect harmony between opulent fruit and structured tannins, making it both accessible in its youth and worthy of cellaring.
