Description:
FIGEAC’s style has pedigree (...); it has aromatic brilliance and displays in dazzling manner the primacy of freshness and balance. It offers unquestionable distinction of constitution, revealing aristocratic tannins and flesh which fills out as the wine opens (...) FIGEAC doesn’t jump out of the glass -you need to go and find it. It is a wine for aesthetes, which develops over time. Never demonstrative in its youth, it becomes more and more complex with age -then the superlatives start to abound. Enhanced by its Cabernet backbone, which brings it great style, it is like a long-distance runner who, after ten years or so, emerges, glancing back smilingly on those powerful sprinters that have suffered premature muscle pulls.”
