Blackcurrants, mushrooms, lemon leaves, nutmeg and oyster shells on the nose. Lovely freshness and texture here, with a medium body and silky tannins. Peppery hints, too. Lengthy and elegant.

by James Suckling, 2022

Estate

Chateau Cormeil-Figeac numbers among the 100 oldest estates in Saint-Emilion. This fleshy and aromatic wine, which ages well, represents all the know-how and elegance of the greatest Saint-Emilion grands crus. Moreaud Family, the estate was bought in 1940 by Rene and Lucie.

Soil

10ha on clay and limestone.

Tasting notes

“Intensely aromatic and floral nose, with notes of herbal, spiced pepper, and some cocoa. Bright red and blue fruit on the palate, pomegranate juice, redcurrants, and cool blueberries, with further savoury flavours. The tannins are very fine and silky, with a lovely salinity. Great tension and energy to the wine, and a longing finish.” Decanter 2023

Winemaking

A blend of the oldest vines, entirely aged in barrel.
