1998 Chateau Figeac (90 WIML)
St. Emilion, France

Quick notes only since this was a B-Day celebration with non-wino family members... Decanted tableside before serving in Schott glasses. Tight as a drum right now. By the end of the night managed to coax out of it a little. Nose of dark fruits, tobacco, chocolate, cedar. Dark fruit flavors such as plum and currants. Let this one sit at least 3 more years before even thinking of opening one again. Call it 90 WIML points for the moment.

joe,

do you have any of the 00 and have you ever tried it? i am sitting on a 6 pack of the 00 and parker claims it can be drunk now and i've heard that figeac doesn't age so gracefully.

Nope. This was my first bottle and I had to order that from a list.
