This shows wonderful precision and focus with dark-berry, tobacco, and blueberry character. Full-bodied, tight and vivid. Solid and structured. Really powerful for Figeac. The real new style here of Figeac that harkens back to the great wines of the 1950s and 1940s. This year, equal parts of merlot, cabernet sauvignon and cabernet franc.

37% Merlot, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Cabernet Franc Medium deep colour. Really lovely dark plum mulberry dark chocolate aromas.Generous and supple with phynomenal density powerful dusty graphite tannins, volume and fruit sweetness, superb viscosity. Really well balanced with integrated mineral acidity and lovely roasted nut oak complexity. Pure and beautiful. Undeniably a great Figeac vintage.
