More Information
Product description
Château Figeac is one of the most historic and prestigious estates in Saint-Émilion, Bordeaux. Owned by the Manoncourt family since 1892, it is renowned for its unique terroir dominated by gravel soils, which favours the use of Cabernet grapes. Figeac has long embraced a philosophy of elegance, structure, and ageing potential, and under the leadership of the late Thierry Manoncourt and now Frédéric Faye, the estate has solidified its place among Bordeaux’s elite.
Wine Description
The 2022 vintage of Château Figeac presents a brilliant, deep garnet hue. Aromas unfold in layers, with cassis, blackberry, black cherry, graphite, violet, and hints of cigar box and spice. On the palate, the wine is opulent and full-bodied, yet refined, delivering a rich core of dark fruit, fine-grained tannins, and mineral tension.
