Tasting Notes from the Producer | |
Flavour | Vibrant, the palate opens up to a powerful attack that gives way to a deliciously enfolding texture. Full of freshness, the mid-palate preserves a pleasant liveliness, highlighting the finesse of the tannins and the wine’s mineral elements. A fantastic vintage by Château-Figeac that resonates with the velvety character of the 2015 vintage and the finesse of 2016. |
