Tasting note |
Cedary, herbal, vegetal characteristics interwoven with sweet currant and cherry fruit are soft, superficial, and delicate. This wine brings to mind the old Burger King advertisement, “Where’s the beef?” Figeac can hit superb heights of subtlety and nobility (i.e., 1982, 1990, 2000), but too often it lacks concentration and intensity. Those are fatal flaws in 2004. By Robert Parker. |
