2023 Château Figeac, St Emilion, Bordeaux

Description

Blend: 41% Merlot; 32% Cabernet Franc; 27% Cabernet Sauvignon.

The 2023 vintage is the Manoncourt family’s 130th, and they have marked the occasion with a truly stunning wine. This was one of the longest harvests ever here, with the fruit picked in two distinct phases (Merlot from 6th-15th September; Cabernets from 27th September-5th October). The wine is immediately very open and wonderfully fragrant, with notes of macerated strawberries, blackcurrant and floral elements. The palate is beautifully textured, with masses of concentration. An underlying salinity gives balance. This is a sensational effort.

Drink 2032 - 2055

Our score: 18/20

About this wine

Saint-Emilion

Saint-Emilion

First officially classified in 1954, St-Émilion is one of Bordeaux's largest winemaking appellations, producing more wine than Listrac, Moulis, St Estèphe, Pauillac, St Julien and Margaux combined. Many of the region's finest vineyards can be found atop the steep limestone slopes of the village itself, although a fledgling band of garagiste producers are eschewing terroir to make small-batch, deeply-concentrated wines from their homes.
