Description / Reviews
"The result of a specific selection when the blends are decided, Petit-Figeac is made with all the skill of the Chateau-Figeac team. Lighter and less full-bodied than its senior, with beautiful length on the palate, a highly refined texture and a great capacity to desuce, it shows its appeal earlier. Petit-Figeac offers an ideal introduction to the spirit of the estate." - Chateau Figeac, Winemaker
"Scented aromatics on the nose, rich and heady with lots of floral and black berry tones. Juicy and supple, this is packed full of energy and brightness giving fresh and cool blueberries and salty strawberries from the start. Clean and precise, sleek and straight with great definition all the way and a delicious mineral, crushed stone flavour and texture on the finish. Very enjoyable yet still compact with plenty of ageing potential." - 93 Points, Georgina Hindle, Decanter
"The 2022 Petit-Figeac is a very pretty second wine and one that very much encapsulates the style of the château. Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon feature heavily in the blend, lending savory and earthy notes that meld into a core of dark-toned Merlot fruit. Quite simply, Petit-Figeac is everything a second wine should be." - 92 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous
