Robert Parker (83)

This appears to be another lightweight Figeac that has taken on considerable amber to its color. It possesses the tell-tale herbaceous, nearly vegetal streak that Figeac often exhibits in cooler years, soft, diffuse fruity flavors marked by greenness, and a disjointed, medium-bodied, peppery finish. It requires immediate consumption.

Winespectator (89)

Surprisingly backward and tight, with currant and tomato aromas, full body, velvety fruit flavors and tough tannins.

Rene Gabriel (16)

Rene Gabriel rates this wine 16/20 points.
