A delicate and refined Saint-Emilion Premier Grand Cru Classé
The estate
A Premier Grand Cru Classé of Saint-Emilion, Château Figeac is the embodiment of the excellence of the great wines of Bordeaux in the world. Château Figeac has been owned by the Manoncourt family for over 120 years.
The vineyard
An illustrious reference among the fine Saint-Emilion wines, Château Figeac enjoys an exceptional location, to the west of the appellation, on the edge of the Pomerol appellation. The property's vineyard covers 40 hectares of vines planted on three different gravelly slopes. Respect for biodiversity, flora and fauna are at the heart of the estate's concerns.
The wine
2021 is the first vintage to be vinified in the property's new winery.
The vintage
A mild and rainy winter favoured an early budding of the vines. Episodes of frost in early spring preceded heavy rainfall in May and June, slowing down the development of the vine. More clement weather was recorded from the beginning of July. At the end of the summer and in September and October, the sunny and particularly dry conditions are ideal and helped to refine the ripening process.
Vinification and ageing
Aged exclusively in new barrels.
The blend
Château Figeac 2021 comprises a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (40%), Cabernet Franc (31%) and Merlot (29%).
