Avis d'expert

96 / 100

Jean-Marc Quarin

(08-2020) Again a very nice tasting of this wine in this not easy vintage. Dark, intense and beautiful color. Very aromatic and noble nose, fine, with ripe and subtle fruitiness. Incredible oily texture on the attack, then the body is juicy in the middle of the mouth and even full. In the finish, this wine takes on another dimension when it adds violet to these flavors and a chic and noble tannic precision. It is superb.

Robert PARKER - The Wine Advocate

(03-2020) Production was down by half this year—only producing 55,000 bottles. Made from 43% Cabernet Sauvignon, 47% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, the deep garnet-purple colored 2017 Figeac gives up expressive notes of black cherries, plum preserves, black raspberries and kirsch, giving way to hints of dried leaves, cinnamon toast and warm cassis plus a waft of lavender. Medium-bodied, the palate has wonderful vibrancy with a refreshing line cutting through the crunchy black fruits and a firm, finely grained frame, finishing long and spicy.
