... Very sweet new wood, caramel aromas that give the wine an initial softness. Then acidity and sweet blackberry flavors move in...a finely balanced wine...
So much truffle, leaf and autumnal character on the nose. Medium to full body, firm and silky. Bright acidity...lively and pretty.
...Burgundy-like bouquet that is nicely defined: smudged strawberry, touches of blood orange and even quince coming through. The palate is medium-bodied with a gentle grip...a little masculine and austere...
...almost Burgundy-like on the nose, thanks to the purity of fruit. With aeration it develops more Bordeaux traits such as mint and cedar. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin cut through by a fine line of acidity. This feels harmonious in the mouth...masculine on the finish, completing an enjoyable Figeac that serves as a fine wine in itself...
