St-Emilion 2009 panel tasting results

Château Figeac, 1er GCC

Ripe,classy nose of pencil lead, spice, blackberry, herb and spice. Palate is immature – one could even say innocent – but with a fabulous expression of pure fruit. It has perfect balance; very complete and delicious. A joy at this stage. 18.63pts/20
