Chateau Figeac 2022
ChĂąteau Figeac is one of the most historic and prestigious estates in Saint-Ămilion, Bordeaux. Owned by the Manoncourt family since 1892, it is renowned for its unique terroir dominated by gravel soils, which favours the use of Cabernet grapes. Figeac has long embraced a philosophy of elegance, structure, and ageing potential, and under the leadership of the late Thierry Manoncourt and now FrĂ©dĂ©ric Faye, the estate has solidified its place among Bordeauxâs elite.
Wine Description
The 2022 vintage of ChĂąteau Figeac presents a brilliant, deep garnet hue. Aromas unfold in layers, with cassis, blackberry, black cherry, graphite, violet, and hints of cigar box and spice. On the palate, the wine is opulent and full-bodied, yet refined, delivering a rich core of dark fruit, fine-grained tannins, and mineral tension.
Accolades
- Wine Advocate - 100 points
- Vinous - 97+ points

- Jeb Dunnuck - 96+ points
Food Pairing
