Chateau Figeac St-Emilion *ETA Q3, 2028 En Primeur* 2025 750ml
SKU: RDFR20250038
Château Figeac 2025 is a standout Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé A that captures the estate’s signature finesse, energy, and precision. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot, it delivers complex aromas of ripe cherry, blackberries, mint, violets, pencil lead, and subtle spice. Medium- to full-bodied, the wine is deeply structured yet remarkably refined, with silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, focused finish. Pure, expressive, and beautifully balanced, Château Figeac 2025 combines intensity with elegance and is built for long-term ageing while already showing impressive harmony and clarity.

The 2025 Figeac shows exceptional potential, unwinding in the glass with aromas of ripe cherries and minty blackberries mingled with sweet spices, pencil lead and burning embers. Medium- to full-bodied, dense and deep, with terrific concentration, sweet tannins, bright acids and a long, penetrating finish, this integrated and balanced Figeac is a serious wine, built for the long haul. Fully 90% of production went into the grand vin this year, and it's a blend of 38% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc and 32% Cabernet Sauvignon.

Vivid colour in the glass with absolutely gorgeous perfumed aromas, almost sweet purple flowers and blackcurrants. Really vibrant and expressive, so alive with a touch of medicinal herbal eucalyptus too plus blue fruit and cola. Creamy and soft straight away, silky smooth and so juicy, this is bursting with life and juiciness — such a pure and happy wine. Really focused, precise and detailed with absolute clarity but silky, finely structured tannins. Pure happiness in a glass. Super drinkable, a fabulous wine — succulent with the perfect tannin feel, creamy, velvety and really softly chalky on the finish with a cool mint and cola element that lingers. I love the construction and elegance here. Pure refinement without being too strict or tight. Similar to 2023 in terms of freshness. Perfection. Intense but not showing off, nothing out of place – a showstopper that is perfectly ripe with perfect acidity. 3.66pH. A yield of 25hl/ha. 90% grand vin. 8% press wine.

A dense yet open-grained red. It’s layered, with dusty tannins that give it a velvety texture and a medium- to full-bodied palate with plum, currant and cedar flavors. Juicy. 13% alcohol. Merlot, cabernet franc and cabernet sauvignon.

32% Cabernet Sauvignon, 38% Merlot, 30% Cabernet Franc. 25 hl/ha. Cask sample.
Dark fruit with a hint of minty freshness. Generous fruit on the palate with tension running all the way through. Tannins finely honed and integrated. Plenty of energy. Harmonious. Already quite appealing. (JL)
