Very well made, with blackberry, blueberry and stone aromas that follow through to a medium-bodied, juicy palate. More precise than past vintages. 60% merlot and 40% cabernet franc

Crafted from vines rooted in the sandy, gravelly soils near Figeac and composed of 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc, the 2023 La Tour Figeac reveals aromas of licorice, dark wild berries, spices, smoke and fresh flowers. Medium to full-bodied, suave and enrobing, it’s seamless with velvety tannins, a fleshy core of fruit and a long, ethereal finish. Readers who love sensuality will love it.

Austere, dark blueberry and cassis fruits, edges of charred caramel and sweet fruit given balance and pep by grilled mandarin peel and oyster shell salinity. 35% new barrels of 225l and 400l for ageing, 5% amphora, 40hl/ha yield.

The 2023 La Tour Figeac is a gorgeous, super complex wine. Dried herbs, incense, licorice, spice, crushed flowers and mocha lend notable aromatic complexity. Deep and virile, with tons of depth and fine balance, La Tour Figeac is shaping up very nicely. The blend of 65% Merlot and 35% Cabernet Franc works so well. The introduction of 1% large-format oak and some stems really exalts the purity of the fruit. Taste two times.

The 2023 La Tour Figeac has a very perfumed, floral bouquet of ebullient red cherries, crushed strawberries, violets and candied orange peel. The palate is medium-bodied with plush tannins, displaying a mixture of red and black fruit and a dash of white pepper. Gently grippy with a composed finish, this is a very promising, complex Saint-Émilion Grand Cru that should drink early yet also age well in bottle.

Dark garnet, deep core, purple reflections, discreet brightening on the rim. Ripe black cherries, floral nuances of hibiscus, fresh plums. Medium body, blackberry confit, hints of cloves, round tannins, fine nougat in the finish, mineral aftertaste, remains persistent, certain ageing potential.
