Figeac (375ML)
From Saint-Emilion
Vintage: | 2000 |
---|---|
Description: | 97 Ja / 17.5 Jr. Dense ruby in colour, slight bricking around the edges. Beautifully supple tannins, hints of black truffle, cocoa dusting. Signature Figeac finesse. Bright and vivid, feels like the slow-moving 2000 is now beginning to rival the legendary 2001 Figeac, and reaching that point where you can't decide if you want to slow down and savour every sip or rev up and drink it down in a few gulps. From double magnum. 100% new oak.-Jane Anson, Inside Bordeaux. Deep crimson. Very very Cabernet nose. Quite high acid. A bit stringier than the 2001 vintage in the same tasting. Still youthful. Less on the mid palate than the 2001. As though one portion of grapes was picked a little early, a note of herbaceousness.-Jancis Robinson |
