Grape varieties and terroir

A blend faithful to the Figeac identity:

- Cabernet Franc (35%): finesse, aromatic complexity
- Cabernet Sauvignon (35%): structure, minerality
- Merlot (30%): roundness and suppleness

The deep gravel terroir of Figeac ensures excellent water and thermal regulation, giving the wine freshness and balance, even in demanding years.

Tasting

Color: Clear garnet red, with slightly tiled reflections, a sign of beautiful development.

Nose: Delicate and complex, with aromas of ripe red fruits (cherry, raspberry), violet, graphite, with tertiary notes of undergrowth, fine leather and blond tobacco.
