Château Figeac 1975 is a mature Bordeaux from the Saint-Émilion appellation. This blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc offers layers of mulberry and plum. On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a notable structure. Over time, herbal notes, such as bay leaf, emerge alongside hints of cedar and earthiness. The finish is marked by an evolving complexity.
92 Vinous
The 1975 Figeac is a wine I have drunk several times, though never from jeroboam. This is showing moderate degradation on the rim. The nose presents a mixture of red and black fruit, mocha and leather; an odd, almost petrol-like tincture appears fleetingly. The palate is well balanced, not powerful, yet I find this quite complex with admirable purity. Marmalade hints lend tanginess to the finish; light touches of menthol linger on the aftertaste. Lovely. Tasted at the château.

Château Figeac is one of the finest producers in Saint-Émilion and is just one of fourteen properties classified as Premier Grand Cru Classé (B) in 2012, putting it firmly in the highest echelons of the region.

Owned by the Manoncourt family since 1892, the history of this superb estate can be traced back to the Roman era and today spans 40ha. The majority of the grapes produced go into producing the celebrated first wine of the estate, Château Figeac, a classic style of Saint-Émilion with wonderful texture and tannic power. A small amount of the second wine, Le Petit Figeac is also produced.
