Château Figeac
St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend
Rough in tannic structure. A somewhat paysanne wine. Not elegant.

Mar 5th, 2015Very interesting at first. Lots of earthy notes, tertiary aromas of baked meats, woods, earth, violets. But it seemed to fade pretty quickly and the fruits were somewhat absent from the start.

Jul 10th, 2022This old girl is still drinking well. Took about 45 minutes to open up after 52 years in the bottle. Drank nicely for about an hour with good expression of flavors then went south fast.
