Figeac 2004
CRITIC REVIEWS
Jane Anson
Served in magnum, this represents a classic Bordeaux vintage that saw average temperatures and rainfall. You had to be patient before the 2004 Figeac came around. This wine had touches of band aid on the nose at first, but that cleared to reveal clove and black pepper spice, undergrowth and black truffle, as well as cedar and sweet fruits. There is still structure and freshness here. Its a classic cool climate, old school Bordeaux with real charm. Made with 100% new oak.

Dark ruby. Quite intense, focused, precise nose. Easy and already mature. Fresh and very Figeac. If you wanted to use claret as a mouthwash this would do very nicely indeed! Quite marked acidity. And only medium bodied but very nicely balanced. Good for current drinking. Impressive, neat persistence.
