Chateau Figeac 1996 is an exceptional Bordeaux wine that reflects the historic Château Figeac estate. The estate, known for its unique blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc, produces wines of remarkable elegance and ageability. The 1996 vintage is one of the classic vintages, impressing with its balance and complexity. The depth of the fruit aromas combined with spicy notes and a silky tannin structure is particularly notable, making this wine a true collector's item.

The tasting reveals a complex aroma of dark berries, graphite, and light earthy nuances. The palate displays elegant fruit aromas accompanied by a pleasant minerality and well-integrated wood notes. The wine possesses a complex structure that is ideal for long-term storage. Its optimal drinking age is currently approximately 10 to 20 years after harvest, meaning it is already reaching its full potential. Chateau Figeac 1996 is perfect for special occasions and is sure to delight connoisseurs.

This flagship dish pairs perfectly with dishes such as beef fillet, lamb, or mature hard cheeses. A treat you shouldn't miss—treat yourself to this exquisite experience and enjoy the harmony of tradition and elegance.

LIFE BEFORE...

Where possible, and especially with larger wine cellar purchases, the wine cellars of the previous owners tell us a lot about the storage conditions of the wines. A professionally managed wine cellar usually guarantees perfect storage conditions for the wines. We acquire our wines exclusively from reputable, mostly private wine collectors.

HIDDEN FEATURES

Many high-quality wines today feature various security features for authentication, such as markings that only become visible under UV light. We check and compare all purchased wines for these features using an extensive database, and if there is even the slightest doubt, we reject the wine.

THE DETAILS MATTER

We examine wine labels under a microscope to determine their quality, and we check the printed image for any peculiarities that are typical for a particular winery, wine, or vintage. We draw on a large image database to identify any anomalies.

COLOR MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

Last but not least, we also examine the wine's composition. Color, turbidity, sediment, and the bubbles in a champagne reveal a lot about the wine's or champagne's condition and potential drinking pleasure.
