CHATEAU FIGEAC 1995 |

Château Figeac 1995 St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (B)Good levels, 1 label slightly markedA stellar Figeac to celebrate the 50th harvest of the late, great owner Thierry Manoncourt. At 15 years old, an unbelievably dense crimson colour and a huge bouquet that is almost oaky, almost 2000. On the palate, it is so rich and concentrated, in spite of a good yield. So meaty, lusciously fruity and opulent. A real giant, what the French would call 'charnu', with a smoked meat and pepper finish.
