Description

L'Esquisse de la Tour Figeac is the second wine of Château La Tour Figeac, an esteemed estate in the Saint-Émilion appellation on Bordeaux’s Right Bank. This wine benefits from the expertise and terroir that have made Saint-Émilion one of the most prestigious wine regions in the world. Made from a blend dominated by Merlot and complemented by Cabernet Franc, L'Esquisse is crafted to be a more approachable and earlier-drinking version of the estate’s grand vin. It delivers elegance, depth, and the hallmark characteristics of Saint-Émilion wines—lush fruit, silky tannins, and a refined structure.

Tasting Notes

COLOR:
Deep ruby red with purple highlights.

NOSE:
Aromas of ripe red and black fruits such as cherries, raspberries, and blackberries are prominent, accompanied by subtle floral notes of violet. Hints of vanilla, cocoa, and spices like clove and cinnamon from oak aging add complexity.

TASTE:
Medium to full-bodied with a rich, velvety texture, the palate showcases juicy flavors of plum, blackcurrant, and cherry. There are also underlying notes of earthy minerality and a touch of tobacco. The tannins are fine and well-integrated, giving the wine structure and elegance. The vibrant acidity balances the fruit, creating a harmonious and well-rounded wine.

FINISH:
Long and smooth, with lingering notes of dark fruit, spices, and a touch of mocha.

This Saint-Émilion wine pairs beautifully with a variety of elegant dishes:

Roast lamb with herbs or grilled beef steaks

Mushroom risotto or truffle-based dishes
Pasta dishes with rich, savory sauces such as wild boar ragù or beef Bolognese
Aged cheeses like Saint-Nectaire or Comté
Dark chocolate or fruit-based desserts, such as blackberry tarts or cherry clafoutis
