Petit-Figeac Saint-Emilion Grand Cru 2012

Since 2010 Figeac has been managed by Comte Eric d’Aramon and his wife Laure and there has been some serious improvements here recently under winemaker Frédéric Faye. Michel Rolland has been brought in to consult – but not to change the unique Figeac style. As a consequence, the wines produced now seem a little riper and more polished than before but are still fine, pure and classic.

Tasting notes:
The result of a specific selection when the blends are decided, Petit-Figeac is made with all the skill of the Château-Figeac team. Lighter and less full-bodied than its senior, with beautiful length on the palate, a highly refined texture and a great capacity to seduce, it shows its appeal earlier. Petit-Figeac offers an ideal introduction to the spirit of the estate.
