If only the Rangers could play as well on ice as this delicious wine does on my supple palate.. sigh, well perhaps, like a fine wine, this hockey team will not actually suck ass this evening... — 5 years ago

Had this with the filet served on our last leg of flying home on Emirates.
This is Figeac’s second wine. Starting with the 2012 vintage going forward, this wine was renamed Petit Figeac.
The nose reveals, soft, slightly muted; blackberries, black cherries, black plum skin, plum, black raspberries & floral purple fruit mix. There’s a good presence of well layered baking spices; cinnamon, soft clove & nutmeg, vanilla, mocha powder, light caramel, dark cola currants, dry clay & top soil, dry stones, sandstone minerals, leathery notes, hints of graphite, anise, dark rich soil, fruit tea with dark red, purple flowers with violets that are slightly withering.
The body is not quite full with dry, fine earthy tannins. The mouthfeel is warm and ripe. It shows beauty & elegance. The structure, soft tension, length and balance reveal the quality of the 09 vintage. Ripe; blackberries, black cherries, black plum skin, plum, creamy black raspberries & floral purple fruit mix. Nicely layered baking spices; cinnamon stick, soft clove & nutmeg, vanilla, mocha powder, light caramel, dark & milk chocolate, dark cola currants, dry clay & top soil, dry stones, powdery, dry crushed rocks, sandstone minerals, cedar, leathery notes, hints of graphite, fresh, soft tobacco, anise, dark rich soil, fruit tea with dark red, purple flowers with violets, lavender that are fresh and slightly withering. The acidity is round excellent. The long finish is good but still needs five or more years to further integrate and soften. It shows a somewhat earthy dominance over fruit. but, it’s still very nice and persistent for minutes. 91 now and room for two to three points more down the road.
If you can still find this at a reasonable price, buy it. It’s going really beautiful in five more years.
Photos of; Chateau Figeac, my Emirates filet, which actually pretty good considering it was airline prepared, both sides of their lounge in Business Class. — 7 years ago
This smooth, berry blend makes for a wonder night cap after a filling pasta dinner! No bite, very lite in flavor. Great price here in the Ozarks. — 8 years ago

Lovely sparkling with minerals. You can taste the chalk. This will age well Lille will drink it in a few years — 4 years ago
100% Sauvignon Blanc & delicious. This is the first I've had from 'Emmenez-Moi'. Bright but note ripe with mild acidity. Looking forward to trying more from them! — 5 years ago

This 2015 is a great value. A little thin mid palate, but a very good bordeaux representation for around $20 USD — 7 years ago
