19/20 Punkte

Rich glass staining red, a relatively restrained nose, but saves it for the palate, which is a brooding hit, right in the mouth. It then drops off with a welcome break, and builds gently again. Very good quality, the cabernet sauvignon coming through clearly, and very successfully. Big, but it works. Drink 2018-2032.

This is a Figeac wine with plenty of substance but still elegant and fresh in style. Dense, lively, expressive fruit. Firm but fine tannins. Great length.

"Very dark crimson. Medium concentration. High-toned minerality on the nose. Lots of appetising sap and savour. Loose and round and easy peasy. Attractive in that it’s not overdone; possibly a chance missed in that it’s just slightly slack. Or possibly it’s Figeac..! Ah. That last phrase was written when I tasted this blind and it's true that this potentially great wine rarely shows well en primeur. Hence the hopeful double plus after the score. Though its gravel soils will not have done the wine any favours in this exceptionally dry vintage."

Fresh herbs, dark ripe berries, licorice, cassis and green peppercorn aromas fill the perfume. Full bodied, tannic and slightly austere in character, with intensity, licorice and bright black cherry flavors, this is a successful vintage for the traditionally styled Figeac.

"Gorgeous bright purplish crimson. Beautiful fresh nose of ripe fruit. Extremely elegant grain of tannins and plenty of savours on the palate - but I would have liked more body."

Sehr dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe; feiner Schokoschmelz, mit dunkler Beerenfrucht unterlegt, feine Gewürzanklänge, zart nach Vanille; stoffig, frisch strukturiert, präsente, gut integrierte Tannine, mineralischer Touch, feine Kirschenfrucht im Abgang, zeigt bereits eine gute Länge, sicheres Potenzial.

Verschlossen, erratisch, majestätisch, dicht, mit präsentem Tannin, saftig, lang, doch ohne Schwerfälligkeit, unbequem und eigenständig, herrlich lang: einmal mehr ein absoluter Ausnahmewein und der vielleicht beste Rive-Droit-Wein des Jahrgangs. 2025 bis 2050
