Deep garnet colour. Complex nose of warm blackberry, hung meat, tobacco, cloves and cinnamon. The medium bodied palate is elegantly styled and well balanced with medium acidity and soft, silky tannins. Still plenty of ripe, rich, dark berry fruit complimented by a suggestion of truffles. Long finish.
Best Figeac in years. Loads of blackberry, chocolate and stones. Full-bodied and concentrated with masses of tannins and fruit. Long, long finish.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 18/20 points.
