Château Figeac, St Emilion, 2017 - Hammonds

This striking Saint-Émilion Premier Grand Cru Classé represents a masterclass in elegance from a challenging vintage, largely spared from spring frosts thanks to its exceptional gravel-rich terroir. Uniquely defined by an equal blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot, it reveals a remarkably fresh and aromatic profile of graphite, fresh tobacco leaf, and pure blackcurrant fruit that will continue to evolve gracefully over the next 15 to 20 years.
