The 2025 Figeac shows exceptional potential, unwinding in the glass with aromas of ripe cherries and minty blackberries mingled with sweet spices, pencil lead and burning embers. Medium- to full-bodied, dense and deep, with terrific concentration, sweet tannins, bright acids and a long, penetrating finish, this integrated and balanced Figeac is a serious wine, built for the long haul. Fully 90% of production went into the grand vin this year, and it's a blend of 38% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc and 32% Cabernet Sauvignon.
The 2025 Figeac is a powerful, deeply structured wine. Dark-fleshed fruit, mocha, incense, scorched earth, tobacco and grilled herbs soar across the palate in a towering Figeac of the highest level. All the elements are so well balanced. A season marked by very gradual ripening yielded an especially aromatic, perfumed Grand Vin. Yields were 25 hectoliters per hectare, harvested at a very modest 13% potential alcohol. The 2025 saw a cold maceration lasting six to eight days, with no sulfur added at crush, followed by another three weeks or so on the skins. Tasted two times. 2035-2075.
A dense yet open-grained red. It’s layered, with dusty tannins that give it a velvety texture and a medium- to full-bodied palate with plum, currant and cedar flavors. Juicy. 13% alcohol. Merlot, cabernet franc and cabernet sauvignon.
Vivid colour in the glass with absolutely gorgeous perfumed aromas, almost sweet purple flowers and blackcurrants. Really vibrant and expressive, so alive with a touch of medicinal herbal eucalyptus too plus blue fruit and cola. Creamy and soft straight away, silky smooth and so juicy, this is bursting with life and juiciness — such a pure and happy wine. Really focused, precise and detailed with absolute clarity but silky, finely structured tannins. Pure happiness in a glass. Super drinkable, a fabulous wine — succulent with the perfect tannin feel, creamy, velvety and really softly chalky on the finish with a cool mint and cola element that lingers. I love the construction and elegance here. Pure refinement without being too strict or tight. Similar to 2023 in terms of freshness. Perfection. Intense but not showing off, nothing out of place - a showstopper that is perfectly ripe with perfect acidity. 3.66pH. A yield of 25hl/ha. 90% grand vin. 8% press wine.
