Château Figeac, Ch. Figeac 1990, Magnum

91 / 100 Robert Parker
This is a strong effort for Figeac, but the wine is fully mature and is beginning to fade slightly. It offers a terrific bouquet of roasted herbs, cedarwood, licorice, sweet cherries, and background foresty/underbrush notes, a fleshy attack, medium body, sweet fruit, and plenty of glycerin, but the tannins provide a pinched finish that evaporates quickly leaving only astringency. This wine tires within 45 minutes of opening, so it needs to be drunk over the next 4-5 years, if not sooner.

Ruby color. Interesting aromas of plums, leaves and berries. Full-bodied, with chewy tannins and a ripe fruit and chocolate aftertaste. Rich and chunky Figeac.--1990 Bordeaux retrospective. Drink now. 12,500 cases made.

18.5 / 20 Jancis Robinson
Fully mature-looking ruby with very sumptuous, almost roasted nose and masses of sweetness. Round and with lots of stones and minerals. Fresh, slightly dry finish. Very opulent. Long finish. Though slightly dried on the end.
