Sourced largely from dedicated parcels and younger vines in a frost-challenged year, it opens with red currant, graphite, and cedar, layered with subtle floral and savory notes. The palate is full bodied and precise, with polished tannins, fresh acidity, and restrained oak.

More akin to Clos du Marquis to Leoville Las Cases in spirit than declassified Grand Vin, this is a well priced Cuvée from Ducru. — 7 months ago

I’m thinking about starting a Grateful Journal. I’ve heard that writing down things you’re thankful for 5-10 mins before sleep helps you actually get the most from your sleep and also helps you wake up more energized. Tonight, my journal will note how thankful I am for friends who share great wine. @Frank this young beauty is sultry. Like making love on a hot summer’s night with the windows open. Opens with a pleasant earthy musk, meaty and gamey notes, and some fresh herbs, garrigue. Luscious and thicky-thick on the palate (see: Nelly). The red and blue fruits sing in wonderful harmony with the earthy, unadulterated tension just below the surface. Spicy, mineral, savory, and clean fruit all at once. Many years ahead. Perfect way to get in the Christmas spirit! — 8 years ago

My choice for Independence Day is something which shows the true spirit of Independence in American wine. This is the second example of an excellent St Laurent from Ricci that I've had. High toned, cranberry which picks up depth as it breathes. @Michael Cruse represents independence beautifully. — 10 years ago

Petit-Figeac 2021
Saint-Émilion, (Right Bank) Bordeaux, France 🇫🇷

Overview
This is the second wine of Château Figeac, one of the most iconic estates in Saint-Émilion, known for its unique terroir of gravel and its mastery of blending. The 2021 Petit-Figeac is crafted primarily from Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon, offering a more approachable and earlier-drinking alternative to the Grand Vin, yet still carrying the château’s unmistakable finesse.

Aromas & Flavors
Nose: charming and expressive, with ripe red berries, fresh plum, redcurrant, and subtle floral notes, accented by hints of cedar and graphite.
Palate: elegant progression with cherry, cassis, and blackberry, wrapped in gentle oak spice and refined tannins, leading into a long, polished finish.

Mouthfeel
Medium-bodied, with a silky texture, precise acidity, and a refined balance between fruit and structure. Less powerful than the Grand Vin, but wonderfully harmonious and expressive, highlighting its youthful vibrancy.

Winemaking & Style
Produced with the same care as Château Figeac, using fruit from younger vines and select parcels. Aged in French oak barrels, it offers a more accessible and supple version of Figeac’s signature style, while still carrying excellent complexity.

Food Pairing
Ideal with roast duck, beef carpaccio, lamb chops, or mushroom risotto. Also pairs beautifully with semi-hard cheeses like Comté or Manchego.

Verdict
A refined and beautifully balanced second wine that captures the spirit of Figeac in a softer, earlier-drinking style. Enjoy now through the next 7–10 years. A brilliant way to taste the elegance of this legendary estate without opening the Grand Vin. — a year ago

If this was more expensive, it’d be the toast of Nikki Beach In St Barts. Best sparkling wine for the buck. Delicate, light, sweet on the nose but dry with the perfect amount of carbonation. Almost too easy to drink. — 8 years ago

Starts tight but with intense rocky and burnt herbal/pepper aromas. Opens up to beautiful freshly oozing raspberry flavors. An iron minerality. Spiced plum. Really dope. Blueberry, very sharp finish, so much precision. A spirit lifter — 9 years ago
