Château Figeac
St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend
Disjointed and clunky at this stage in its evolution. One part fruit and spice, two parts oak = no bueno. Leave alone for 4-5 years.

Less acidity and more extraction, and more accessible style. Good modern type of wine with some ressemblance to classical Figeac.
