The 2014 Château Figeac is a notable Right Bank Bordeaux from one of Saint-Émilion’s esteemed estates. Situated on a unique terroir of gravel, sand and clay, Figeac’s vineyards enable a distinctive expression, differing from the region’s limestone soils. This vintage comprises 35% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Cabernet Franc and 35% Merlot, underscoring the estate`s characteristic Cabernet-dominant style. The wine displays a bouquet of dark fruits, earthy undertones and hints of cedar. With its significant structure and firm tannins, this magnum promises to evolve considerably over time.

Deep garnet-brick in color, the 2014 Figeac waltzes out with showy scents of baked black cherries and plum preserves followed by hints of candied violets, licorice, and sandalwood. The medium-bodied palate delivers generous black fruits with a velvety texture and impressive tension, finishing long and fragrant.Lisa Perrotti-Brown5th March 2024
95 Jane Anson
Quite different in feel to most of the St Emilions in this lineup, lovely balance, focus on cassis and juicy dark fruits, with liqourice and slate. Feels ripe without losing any of the integrity of the fruit character, poised and at a brilliant moment to start enjoying, juicy finish and plenty of length. 33hl/hyield, 100% new oak for aging. Harvest September 9 to October 12. Last tasted two years ago, and this has really opened up.Jane Anson8th February 2024
94 Vinous
The 2014 Figeac has a nose that is a cut above some of its peers, fresher and more vibrant, in for the long haul with raspberry and wild strawberry, autumn bonfire, pencil box and just a touch of meat juices. Lovely! The palate is medium-bodied with fine-boned tannins, focused and classic in style, with greater body and firmness on the finish than its peers. A wonderful mélange of Left and Right Bank, which is what Figeac essentially is. Recommended. Tasted at Bordeaux Index's 10-Year-On tasting. Neal Martin19th March 2024
