Robert Parker Wine Advocate 100
James Suckling 97-98
Decanter 96

JAMES SUCKLING: "This is a really sophisticated young wine with tobacco, crushed stone, currants and dark chocolate on the nose, following through to a medium to full body with intense yet linear tannins and a spicy, fresh finish. Some cloves and black pepper. Graphite at the end. Very long. 37% merlot, 32% cabernet franc and 31% cabernet sauvignon."

ROBERT PARKER - THE WINE ADVOCATE: "The 2020 Figeac is a blend of 37% Merlot, 32% Cabernet Franc and 31% Cabernet Sauvignon, weighing in with an alcohol of 13.9% and a pH of 3.7. Opaque purple-black colored, it bursts from the glass with a beautifully vibrant initial wave of pure, pristine black fruits: fresh black cherries, juicy black plums and ripe blackcurrants. With swirling, a whole array of floral and spice notes is unleashed: lavender, ground cloves, cumin seed, cardamom and rose oil. The medium-bodied palate is surprisingly graceful for the intensity of aromas, featuring ethereal, perfumed black berry notes, framed by a seamless line of freshness and ripe, grainy tannins, finishing on a lingering fragrant earth note. Far more cerebral and quietly introspective than it is hedonic, this could only be Figeac." - Lisa Perrotti-Brown

DECANTER: "This delivers concentration and intensity, a ton of black fruits, definitely Cabernet dominant in terms of fruit, and its slightly serious character, with a whoosh of juice on the finish. An extremely elegant and controlled wine, with savoury bilberry and loganberry, then peony and tobacco leaf as it opens. Tannins are finely layered but there are a lot of them. Not an exuberant Figeac, but this is rarely a wine that rushes out to seduce, it takes its time and has ageing potential in spades. The gravel soils in the drought of the summer meant the grapes slowed their ripening process, although only the youngest vines suffered blockages, and that combined with the high Cabernet content of Figeac means lower alcohols than the past few years, giving a classic balance and a feeling of effortless success. Drinking Window 2029 - 2046."

FALSTAFF: "Karamell und Kokos, viel Neuholz, Schwarzkirsche, aber auch sehr frische und reife schwarze Johannisbeere, Minze, Heidelbeere. Ein Beerenbukett. Im Mund mit feinkörnigem, griffigem Tannin in mittelhoher Menge, etwas Süße. Stabile, sich im Abgang ganz leicht grünlich steigernde Säure. Intensive Gaumenfrucht, feste taktile Mineralität, lange strukturelle Plateauphase. Und eine tolle Aromatik! Je nachdem, wie sich die Säure einbindet, eher nur 93 oder doch eine strahlende 96." - Peter Moser
