Château Figeac – 1er Grand Cru Classé Saint Emilion 2023 (wooden case of 6 bottles)

A neighbor of Château Cheval Blanc, Château Figeac is the most extensive cru of its appellation, with 40 hectares of vines. It has belonged to the Manoncourt family since 1892. Very involved in the governance of the estate, Mrs. Thierry Manoncourt and Hortense Idoine Manoncourt represent the sustainability of the family shareholding. In early 2013, they chose as co-manager Jean-Valmy Nicolas, of Château La Conseillante in Pomerol, while the general management was entrusted to Frédéric Faye, present since 2002 in Figeac where he was head of cultivation, then technical director. . The oenologist Michel Rolland intervenes as a consultant for the vinifications.
