Here’s a new favorite from our selection! The 2023 La Tour Figeac works wonders once again, showcasing exceptional elegance, finesse, and silkiness. Its remarkable terroir, composed of gravel, clay, and sand, adjacent to Figeac and farmed biodynamically, allows it to stand alongside its illustrious neighbors like Figeac, Cheval Blanc, and La Conseillante!
The 2023 vintage proves this yet again, revealing innate charm with lovely fruity notes of crushed raspberries and floral accents. The overall impression is very elegant, with flattering oak, a lightly extracted structure, and a flowing, radiant texture. This wine expresses itself in a very Burgundian style, with precise and silky tannins.
Olivier Poussier praises this great achievement with a 94/100 rating.
It’s one of our favorite crus from Saint-Emilion!
