Marks and reviews

/100

Decanter

Intense aromatics, herbal fruit and gentle spice. Sleek and linear, with good drive from start to finish. Tannins are fine and there’s a lively edge that’s approachable even if the acidity is a little high. Well balanced, not super concentrated but not diluted. Easy to enjoy.

Yves Beck

Notes of cocoa beans, blackberries and black cherries in the bouquet of la Rose Figeac. On the palate, this Pomerol by Nathalie Despagne stands out for its elegance, vibrancy and harmony. It strikes a perfect balance between charm, freshness and subtlety. A great success!

Jean-Marc Quarin

Deep-colored wine with an appealing blackberry aroma. The palate is delicate and flavorful, with a slightly lively finish. Medium length. Blend: 85% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc. Yield: 32 hl/ha.

Description

A Pomerol wine of captivating elegance and balance

The estate

Founded in 1961 by Louis Rapin, the Château La Rose Figeac is a wine estate located in the south-east of Pomerol, Bordeaux. Since 2013, Nathalie Despagne has been managing the estate, bringing a modern touch with organic practices certified by Ecocert and biodynamic methods.

The vineyard

Located in the south-east of the Pomerol appellation, close to the Figeac and La Tour Figeac estates, the vineyard of Château La Rose Figeac benefits from a sandy-gravelly terroir particularly suited to expressing Bordeaux grape varieties. The 4.42 hectares in production have an average age of 40 years, farmed according to organic farming principles, with soil management adapted to each parcel.

Winemaking and aging

Hand-harvested grapes followed by rigorous sorting in the vineyard and at the winery using densimetric sorting. Cold pre-fermentation maceration under carbon dioxide inerting. Plot-based vinification in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks of 57 and 40 hectoliters, using indigenous yeasts. Aging takes place in French oak barrels (55% new, 40% once-used) and 5% in amphorae.

Blend

The 2024 Château La Rose Figeac is made from a blend of 85% Merlot and 15% Cabernet Franc.
