Sporting a medium to deep garnet-purple color, the 2018 Petit-Figeac has a very pretty nose of Black Forest cake, mulberries and raspberry leaves, leading to suggestions of cinnamon stick, rose oil and tilled soil. The medium-bodied palate has all the class of its big brother, Figeac, if slightly less intensity and layers, offering soft, skillfully managed tannins and seamless freshness to support the earth-laced black fruit layers, finishing long and earthy. This is an impressive second wine that really does have the same compelling personality of the grand vin!

The 2018 Petit Figeac has an opulent bouquet with blackcurrant, cassis and light kirsch aromas. The palate is rich and quite powerful for a second wine, grippy tannins with blackcurrant, fig and cocoa notes, but at least fresh on the finish with a saline aftertaste. Give it three years in bottle. Score: 87 - 89 Neal Martin, Vinous.com Maturity: 2022-2032 01 November 2019 |
