Description
France / Bordeaux / Saint-Èmilion
While in Saint-Èmilion Merlot is mainly grown on clay and limestone soils, the vineyards of Château-Figeac are located on three gravel hills that are more suitable for Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, similar to the left bank of the Garonne. The soils have outstanding potential, which explains the unique balance of the cuvées made from the Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Merlot grape varieties. The family winery is one of the oldest and largest châteaus in Saint-Émilion. The former owner Thierry Manoncourt is considered the creator of the concept of the "second wine" when he introduced La Grange Neuve de Figeac (now Petit Figeac) in 1945.
