Neal Martin 100 points www.vinous.com The 2016 Figeac was bottled at the end of July 2018, since Frédéric Faye wanted to give the wine more time in barrel to develop more harmony. The stunning 24-carat bouquet rivets you to the spot with brilliant delineation and mineral-rich red fruit that articulates its terroir as well as any Right Bank you will find. The palate is medium-bodied with svelte tannin, perfect acidity, wonderfully integrated new oak and enormous depth toward the fresh, pencil-box- and cedar-infused finish. This is a classic Figeac, up there with the 1947 and 1949, both recently re-tasted and testifying to a wine that genuinely belongs among the elite Saint-Émilions. Faye believes it is the best Figeac he has ever made. He is correct.
Jean-Marc Quarin 96 points www.quarin.com Le meilleur jamais fait. Couleur intense et noire. Nez intense, au fruité mûr, frais et vif. Gras dés l’entrée en bouche, caressant au milieu, très, très fruité, le vin s’avance élancé et savoureux vers une finale un brin tannique, mais enveloppée. Très belle longueur savoureuse et sèveuse. Degré d’alcool : 13°9 (dans la moyenne) – pH : 3,67 (moyenne basse) – IPT : 76 (moyenne haute).
Antonio Galloni 98+ points www.vinous.com The 2016 Figeac is simply extraordinary. A wine of pure energy and vitality, the 2016 pulses with a real sense of drive. Lavender, mint, crème de cassis and cedar start to develop in the glass, but what is most remarkable about the 2016 is its total sense of harmony. There is natural tension, a sort of push and pull, between the wine’s intense fruit and structural underpinnings that makes the 2016 a marvel to taste and contemplate. It was positively stunning in two separate tastings. Technical Director Frédéric Faye and his team made an epic Figeac in 2016.
