Description

Ch. Petit Figeac is often confused as being the second wine of Ch. Figeac (that honour goes to  La Grange Neuve de Figeac).  Instead. Ch. Petit Figeac shares ownership with Figeac itself and indeed shares a similar blend to Figeac with its high percentage of Cabernet.  The 35-year old vines produce a wine that is approachable in youth and shows layer upon layer of luscious sweet fruit and is a perfect food match with rara steak. Only a 1500 cases are produced each year.

About this wine

Château Figeac

Château Figeac is one of the leading St. Emilion estates and its wine, with its high Cabernet content, has often been described as the most Médoc-like in St-Emilion. The estate is located in the north-west of the appellation with its vineyards adjoining those of Cheval Blanc. Its 54 hectares of vineyards lie on a deep, Médoc-like gravel topsoil over a flinty, iron-rich subsoil. Figeac was promoted in 2022 to the level of Premier Grand Cru Classé A, the top tier of the St Emilion classification.
