The red wine Château Figeac, vintage 2005 from the winery Château Figeac has been rated in 2022 by Peter Moser with 90 Falstaff points. It is a wine made from the grape varieties Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon from the region St. Emilion in France.
Dark ruby purple reflections, subtle ochre brightening on the rim. A hint of undergrowth and tapenade on the nose, needs some air to transform the savouriness into fruit, subtle oxidative nuances, ripe plums, nougat, later cassis and mint, candied tangerine peel. Medium-bodied, fruity texture, blackberry confit, ripe tannins, chocolatey finish, deep and long. A full-bodied food wine, mineral and persistent, much more convincing on the palate than on the nose, although the finish is also somewhat dry here. Seems older than it is. (drink, until 2040).
