The Wine Advocate

"Tasted at the Château Figeac vertical at the property. The 1990 Figeac was drinking gloriously and this is perhaps the best bottle that I have tasted. It is noticeably deep in color, in fact, deeper and more lucid than many vintages from the 1980s. It reminds me of the Lafleur 1990 in some ways, with its very expressive Cabernet Franc that manifests black truffle and cigar ash scents. There is such clarity here. The palate is medium-bodied and full of degraded black, earthy fruit. There is weight and presence here, gently gripping the mouth with a long tobacco-tinged finish that is still very satisfying. There is something still "old school" about this Figeac, but it certainly would be my pick from this era. Tasted June 2015."

"This is a strong effort for Figeac, but the wine is fully mature and is beginning to fade slightly. It offers a terrific bouquet of roasted herbs, cedarwood, licorice, sweet cherries, and background foresty/underbrush notes, a fleshy attack, medium body, sweet fruit, and plenty of glycerin, but the tannins provide a pinched finish that evaporates quickly leaving only astringency. This wine tires within 45 minutes of opening, so it needs to be drunk over the next 4-5 years, if not sooner. And, do not over-aerate!"

Robert Parker 91 Punkte (Jun. 2009)

"This is a fabulous Figeac with a deep ruby/garnet color and some lightening at the edge. A sweet nose of licorice, cedar, black currants, cherries, and minerals is followed by a relatively fleshy Figeac with medium body and wonderful sweetness, in a very expansive, elegant style, with nothing out of place. The wine is fully mature and capable of lasting for at least another 10-15 years. Anticipated maturity: Now-2016."

Robert Parker 92 Punkte (Jan. 2003)

"One of Bordeaux's most schizophrenic properties, as disappointing as Figeac's 1989 has turned out, the 1990 is fabulous. This property has not made a wine as rich as the 1990 since 1982. In contrast to the 1989, the 1990 is a great Figeac, potentially a richer, more complete and complex wine than the 1982. The 1990 exhibits a saturated dark purple color (somewhat atypical for Figeac), and a gorgeous nose of olives, fruitcake, jammy black fruits, minerals, and licorice. Medium to full-bodied, with gobs of glycerin-imbued, sweet, jammy fruit, this wine is nicely buttressed by moderate tannin and adequate acidity. Fleshy and rich, as well as elegant and complex, it is approachable because of the wine's sweet fruit, but it promises even more pleasure with 2-4 more years of bottle age; it will last for 20 years. I predict the 1990 Figeac will have one of the most exotic and compelling aromatic profiles of the 1990s. It is a terrific wine!"

"The exceptional 1990 is the first authoritative Figeac since their splendid 1982. The huge nose of new saddle leather, herbs, black fruits, and smoke is followed by a wine with exceptional concentration, excellent balance and depth, and a smooth-as-silk finish. Ripe tannins and sweet fruit combine to produce a splendidly opulent, rich Figeac that should drink well for two decades. This is undoubtedly one of the most impressive notes I have ever given an infant vintage of Figeac. I should also point out that the 1990 Figeac bears more than a casual resemblance to its renowned neighbor, Cheval Blanc. Anticipated maturity: 1995-2010. A fabulous wine!"

Robert Parker 94 Punkte (Aug. 1993)

"The 1990 is the first great Figeac since their splendid 1982. When Figeac gets everything right, as it did in 1990, the result is one of the most compelling wines in Bordeaux. The huge nose of new saddle leather, herbs, black fruits, and smoke is followed by a wine with exceptional concentration, excellent balance and depth, and a smooth-as-silk finish. Ripe tannins and sweet fruit combine to produce a splendidly opulent, rich Figeac that should drink well for two decades. Figeac often behaves like Cheval Blanc. Therefore, it can be notoriously light when tasted young, often putting on considerable weight during the first 2-5 years after bottling. With that caveat in mind, this is undoubtedly one of the most impressive notes I have ever given an infant vintage of Figeac. Anticipated maturity: 1995-2010."

Decanter Magazine

"One-third each of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, 100% new oak, with a harvest that lasted from 17 September to 6 October. Still deep in colour, and is given a huge boost by the Cabernets. The high sugar and low acidity comes through to give some ripe, almost overripe character with figs and rich berry jam notes. Gentle cold ash and menthol freshness work wonders at the close of play, giving a real boost to the length of the wine on the finish."

Jane Anson 96 Punkte (Okt. 2018)

"1990 was a warm year, and you get clear indications of a ripe harvest with the abundant flavours of figs and damsons, with soft, integrated woodsmoke. Liquorice and cedar run through the palate. I love their handling of oak here, where the benefits of the 100% new barrels and the structure of the Cabernets come into their own in this tertiary phase. This is a lovely wine to slow down with, to take a breath and remember old friends. The second bottle was not so good by the way - expect some variation at this stage in its life."

Jeff Leve

"Fully mature, medium bodied, fresh, with lean to the red fruit side of the style range, the nose is the best part of the wine, with its display of earth, cherries, tobacco, thyme, mint, herbs and spice. Elegant, but more concentrated than light, wiht a soft finish, there is no reason to wait for more development."

"Mittleres Rubingranat, zart unterockert, dezenter Wasserrand. In der Nase feiner Nougat, einladendes Waldbeerkonfit, ein Hauch von Dörrobst, angenehmer Nougat, zarte Kräuterwürze. Saftig, elegant, feste Tannine, rotes Waldbeerkonfit, zitroniger Touch, angenehm herangereifter Wein, gute Länge, schokoladiger Nachhall."
