Description

Winemaker and Vineyard: Château-Figeac owes its unique character to the combination of three mounds of günzian gravels with clayey subsoils, several microclimates, and a blend of cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, and merlot. This original blend, dominated by 2/3 of cabernets, gives the wine both structure, finesse, freshness, and suavity. Since the beginning of this century, Château-Figeac wine has become available in its early years with a more caressing touch of the mouth without losing its incomparable verticality over the years. Its longevity over several decades is exceptional, with an inimitable and complex bouquet that unfolds over time.

Tasting: The 2019 Figeac has turned out brilliantly. Wafting from the glass with aromas of blackberries, cassis, warm spices, violets and pencil shavings, framed by a deft touch of nicely integrated new oak, it's full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with terrific depth at the core, powdery structuring tannins and lively acids, concluding with a long, precise finish. Rich but vibrant, this 2019 reflects the new precision that Frédéric Faye has brought to Figeac; but while it's richer and more polished than the wines of yesteryear, the estate's identity hasn't been lost. robertparker.com (07.04.2022)

Service: Serve at room temperature (16-18°C) to accompany lamb collar with eggplants.
