The Wine Palate
par Lisa Perrotti-Brown le 09/04/2026
A blend of 45% Merlot, 25% Cabernet Franc, and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, the 2023 Petit-Figeac has a deep garnet-purple color. It rolls out with ready-to-go notes of baked plums, boysenberry preserves, and red currant jelly, giving way to hints of dried roses, sassafras, and star anise, with a waft of wild sage. The medium-bodied palate is bright and plush, with vibrant black and red berry layers and great tension, finishing long and perfumed. Very pretty!
