2025 Chateau Figeac - St. Emilion (750ml) [Bordeaux Future ETA 2028]

Figeac with a capital "A"

A true geological exception within its appellation, Château Figeac’s terroir is founded on three deep gravel rises, composed of quartz and flint, resting on a subsoil of blue clay. This singular structure creates a highly complex mosaic of vineyard plots, forming the very bedrock of the wine’s identity.

Château Figeac’s classification as Premier Grand Cru Classé A is the culmination of in-depth work carried out with unwavering consistency, passion and determination by all the teams at the estate. Driven by the Manoncourt family and its collaborators — foremost among them Managing Director Frédéric Faye — Figeac has relentlessly pursued its ambition: to bring this legendary vineyard to its rightful place, at the summit of Saint-Émilion. The new winery, inaugurated in spring 2021, stands as a testament to this ambition and to the continuity of the work undertaken at Figeac.
The 2025 vintage : 

The 2025 vintage is defined by exceptionally warm and dry conditions. Yet the outstanding terroir of Château
Figeac—with its distinctive blue clay subsoils beneath gravel rises—played a crucial role in moderating water
stress. These natural advantages were further enhanced by carefully tailored viticultural practices designed to
preserve freshness throughout the growing season.

Tasting note

The nose is delicate and layered, revealing peony, white pepper, and fresh red fruit, underpinned by a subtle graphite
minerality. The palate opens with a silky texture and finely grained tannins. The mid-palate is generous and enveloping,
showcasing vibrant fruit purity, while the saline finish lingers with elegance, perfect balance, freshness and a precise
expression of the terroir
