Since the 1945 vintage Château-Figeac has produced a second wine, created by Thierry Manoncourt, who was on of the first Bordeaux winegrowers to impose strict selection based on quality. Renamed Petit-Figeac since the 2012 vintage it has always been made solely from grapes grown on the Château-Figeac estate. The result of a specific selection when the blends are decided, Petit-Figeac is made with all the skill of the Château-Figeac team. Matured in a combination of new (20%) and second use (80%) oak Petit-Figeac is lighter and less full-bodied than its senior, with beautiful length on the palate, a highly refined texture and a great capacity to seduce, it shows its appeal earlier. Petit-Figeac offers an ideal introduction to the spirit of the Figeac estate. [#intro]Made with all the skill of the Figeac team this is a glorious second wine...[/intro]
