Grape varieties and terroir

Iconic assembly:

- Cabernet Franc (35%): tension, complexity, floral nuances
- Cabernet Sauvignon (35%): structure, intensity
- Merlot (30%): roundness, deliciousness and suppleness

The Günzian gravel terroir plays a key role in ensuring slow and balanced maturation, despite a hot climate.

Tasting

Color: Deep red, intense garnet, with purple highlights.

Nose: Powerful and elegant, blending aromas of black fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry), violet, graphite, cedar, with notes of liquorice and sweet spices.

Palate: Full-bodied, dense, and silky, with a perfectly integrated tannic structure. The mineral freshness balances the richness of the fruit, offering a remarkably long, vibrant, and spicy finish.

Storage Potential

A vintage with great potential: 40 to 50 years of aging, to reveal all its nuances over time.

Food and Wine Pairings

Ideal as an accompaniment to:

- Rib-eye steak Bordeaux style
- Roasted leg of lamb with rosemary
- Pigeon stuffed with porcini mushrooms
- Matured cheeses (Comté 36 months, Parmesan)

Description

The warm, sunny 2018 vintage produced dense, concentrated wines. Château Figeac was able to capitalize on these conditions thanks to its unique right-bank grape variety, dominated by Cabernets, and its deep gravel terroir. This 2018 Figeac impresses with its perfect balance of power, freshness, and complexity, offering a modern and majestic definition of the Figeac style.
