Description
EN PRIMEUR DISCOUNT VALID UNTIL 31/12/2026 - DELIVERY SPRING 2027
Petit-Figeac is always made exclusively from grapes harvested at Château-Figeac. Under the direction of Frédéric Faye, this wine is produced with the same dedication and standards as the Grand Vin. It is not a wine from a single plot, but the result of a special selection, with a different blend each year.
The nose is refined, elegant and complex, with delicious aromas of licorice and blackcurrant, as well as floral nuances of red roses and peonies. Furthermore, the wine reveals mineral notes of earth and roots, with hints of Virginia tobacco. In the mouth, the wine starts remarkably straightforward, then becomes full-bodied with controlled power and a well-balanced extraction mid-palate. The delicious and flavoursome finish is supported by polished and precise tannins. Pastry, juicy and fruity notes (blue and black fruits) combine with cedar aromas, adding finesse and complexity.
FACT : The wine is in our conditioned Wine Warehouse and if you come to pick up the wine you will often also receive a nice discount. You will see the possible discount immediately if you choose Pick up on the Checkout page. We are located almost next to the Rijksweg with plenty of parking. Click here for address.

Château Figeac is a renowned winery located in the Saint-Émilion appellation on the right bank of the Bordeaux wine region in France.
History of Château Figeac
Château Figeac has a long and rich history, dating back to the 2nd century, when it was originally a Roman villa. The estate has undergone several transformations over the centuries. In the 19th century, the estate came into the possession of the Manoncourt family, who played an important role in shaping its modern identity.
Vineyards and terroir of Château Figeac
The vineyards of Château Figeac cover approximately 40 hectares (approximately 99 acres) and are planted with mainly Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc grape varieties. The estate is known for its unique terroir, characterized by a combination of gravel, limestone and clay soils. This terroir contributes to the distinctive qualities of the wines produced.
Wine production of Château Figeac
Château Figeac is known for its traditional winemaking practices, which include hand-harvesting the grapes and using a combination of stainless steel and wooden fermentation vats. The estate produces a Grand Vin, the flagship wine, as well as a second wine called "Petit Figeac". The Grand Vin is the flagship wine and is typically a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. The exact blend may vary depending on the vintage. Petit Figeac is the second wine from Château Figeac, often made from younger vines or grapes that do not meet the criteria for Grand Vin. It provides a more accessible and approachable option at a younger age. Château Figeac has the status of Premier Grand Cru Classé (Class B) in the classification of Saint-Émilion wines. This classification recognizes the estate's consistent production of high quality wines. Château Figeac wines are highly regarded for their elegance, complexity and ability to age gracefully. They are often praised by wine critics and enthusiasts.
