96 / 100

Jean-Marc Quarin

(02-1990) Ruby red, lively, brilliant. Slight evolution. Average intensity. Net. Intense and end. Melted, woody and animal nuances. Spice and caramel tips. Net. Intense. Woody notes a little harder. Then evolves favorably. Subtle and fine attack. Development on an intense, fleshy structure, with fine and delicate tactile contact. Tonic and slender evolution, towards a very long, very fine tannin, with tasty astringency, very fruity and racy. Very subtle end of mouth of oval shape. Very long and grilled, flowery, endless retro-olfaction. A lot of class and race. Start to open.

They share a characteristic elegance, fruit of the particular terroir, the grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon''very''and choice of men who together have been or are the Figeac. But they also play on a rich palette and each year he creates a unique combination. Many wine storage is still a feature of Figeac, but also pleasant to drink young wines with tannins well blended. The vintages of Chateau Figeac latest show more power, roundness and fruity. And regularly, Figeac gives us great feelings ". Count Eric d'Aramon, CEO of Chateau Figeac.
