Château Figeac 1990
St. Emilion, 1er Grand Cru Classé (B)
Good general appearance
Glorious scent that is absolutely haunting. Remarkable, great meaty character. So luscious, so super, with a touch of iron and black cherries. A stunner. I had always thought this archetypal St. Emilion and this was confirmed when I had it again at 20 years old. The colour is still very dark while the nose is fragrant and elegant. Coffee beans on the palate, with lovely sweetness and that aromatic 'changeability' in the glass as the air gets at it. Immensely seductive and enchanting, full of breed and finishing with a taste of a glorious Neuhaus chocolate! Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 91
