There is a little more emphasis on the Cabernet Franc this year - 36% of the blend. It is quintessential Figeac on the nose, that is to say that the enticing m?lange of Merlot and Cabernet together creates more than a sum of their parts. Here the blackberry, crushed stone and graphite elements are seamlessly enmeshed with the more ravishing red fruit aspects delivered by the ripe Merlot. It is exquisitely defined. The palate is medium-bodied. First impressions are of a Figeac that leans more to the Cabernet/Left Bank side of its personality, quite structured with black fruit dominating, saline and marine-influenced. The Merlot really comes through towards the close delivering that almost clinical mineral-driven finish. Winemaker Frederic Faye and his team have conjured a deeply impressive, intellectual Figeac this years, amongst the canon of greats that stretch back to the 1940.","Blurb3":null,"ItemNumber":83410,"LimitedToStores":false,"Score1":"(98-100)","Score2":"99","Score3":null,"SourceId1":1,"SourceId2":3,"SourceId3":0,"Id":25261},"BlurbSource":{"Name":"Wine Advocate","Abbreviation":"WA","Id":1},"CategoryId":1,"Producer":"Chateau Figeac","Id":180634,"CustomProperties":{}},{"Name":"2019 Chateau Haut Bailly - Pessac","ShortDescription":null,"FullDescription":null,"SeName":"2019-chateau-haut-bailly-pessac-future","StockQuantity":41,"Sku":"83413","BottleSize":"750ml","ProductType":"SimpleProduct","MarkAsNew":false,"ProductPrice":{"OldPrice":null,"OldPriceValue":null,"Price":"$119.00","PriceValue":119.0000,"BasePricePAngV":null,"BasePricePAngVValue":null,"DisableBuyButton":false,"DisableWishlistButton":false,"DisableAddToCompareListButton":true,"AvailableForPreOrder":false,"PreOrderAvailabilityStartDateTimeUtc":null,"IsRental":false,"ForceRedirectionAfterAddingToCart":false,"DisplayTaxShippingInfo":false,"CustomProperties":{}},"DefaultPictureModel":{"ImageUrl":"https://www.bassins.com/images/thumbs/009/0093049_2019-chateau-haut-bailly-pessac_360.jpeg","ThumbImageUrl":null,"FullSizeImageUrl":"https://www.bassins.com/images/thumbs/009/0093049_2019-chateau-haut-bailly-pessac.jpeg","Title":"Chateau Haut Bailly Pessac-Leognan Rouge bottle","AlternateText":"Chateau Haut Bailly Pessac-Leognan Rouge bottle","CustomProperties":{}},"ProductSpecificationModel":{"Groups":[],"CustomProperties":{}},"ReviewOverviewModel":{"ProductId":180183,"RatingSum":0,"TotalReviews":0,"AllowCustomerReviews":false,"CanAddNewReview":true,"CustomProperties":{}},"Blurb":{"Author1":"Neal Martin","Author2":"Lisa Perrotti-Brown","Author3":null,"Blurb1":"The palate is quite brilliantly balanced, the tannins extremely fine and framing the slightly earthy black fruit laced with salt.
