Description
The 2014 Figeac is composed of 40% Merlot, 32% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 28% Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet colored, it is a little subdued and broody to begin, offering slowly emerging scents of baked plums, creme de cassis, and tar with hints of fertile loam, cardamom, crushed rocks, and mossy tree bark. Medium-bodied, the palate has a generous amount of black fruit preserves with a firm, grainy texture and seamless freshness, finishing long and earthy.
