Château Figeac 2017

Château Figeac, Premier Grand Cru Classé A, is one of the great icons of Saint-Émilion. The estate has a unique terroir: three large gravel rises over clay and sand, extremely rare on the Right Bank. This structure encourages deep rooting, perfect drainage and an unusually Cabernet-driven profile.

Accordingly, the blend is almost evenly divided between Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot, giving Figeac its characteristic style: elegant freshness, graphic tannin structure, fine spice, floral notes and enormous ageing potential. Modern cellar technology and precise parcel work combine with centuries of tradition. Today, Figeac stands for timeless balance, aromatic complexity and one of the noblest interpretations of Saint-Émilion.

Bordeaux is one of the world’s most renowned wine regions – a name that has stood for elegance, diversity and ageing potential for centuries. Gravel, clay and limestone soils alternate, allowing fine nuances in the wines that reflect both terroir and craftsmanship.

Bordeaux is typically known for blends in which grape varieties such as Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc work together harmoniously.

Stylistically, red Bordeaux wines are defined by a balance of fruit, structure and freshness. The white wines – usually made from Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and sometimes Muscadelle – range from crisp and citrus-driven to creamy and complex.
