Château Figeac 1995
Saint-Emilion, 1er grand cru classé
In original wooden case. Excellent appearance. Levels: into-neck
Tasting note: Elegance, finesse, and a very forward style, particularly for this vintage, make this a delicious wine to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the proprietors, the Manoncourts. The wine is medium-bodied with distinctive weedy, tobacco, and red as well as black currant notes, along with cherry, vanilla, and cedar. The wine is soft, forward, seemingly fully mature, but the cunning thing about Figeac is that it can last for longer than it seems to suggest when young. This is Bordeaux at its most elegant. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate Bordeaux Book 4th Edition, January 2003
