Château Figeac的獨特之處在於它的土壤是類似左岸的礫石土，賦予它很好的條件去種植Cabernet Sauvignon和Cabernet Franc，因此本莊的葡萄園裡的種植比例居然是35% Cabernet Sauvignon、35% Cabernet Franc、30% Merlot！它的酒也以Saint-Émilion產區裡具左岸Medoc風格著稱。其獨特風格和優異表現讓它從1954年以來一直被評選為「一等頂級酒莊1er Grand Cru Classé (B)」。
Production was down by half this year—only producing 55,000 bottles. Made from 43% Cabernet Sauvignon, 47% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc, the deep garnet-purple colored 2017 Figeac gives up expressive notes of black cherries, plum preserves, black raspberries and kirsch, giving way to hints of dried leaves, cinnamon toast and warm cassis plus a waft of lavender. Medium-bodied, the palate has wonderful vibrancy with a refreshing line cutting through the crunchy black fruits and a firm, finely grained frame, finishing long and spicy.
