Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: Tasted in Bordeaux from an ex-château bottle, the 2011 Figeac has a healthy deep garnet hue. The nose is quite vibrant and well defined with blackberry, briary and a touch of graphite, though not as much as I remember showing out of barrel. The palate is medium-bodied with supple tannin, crisp in the mouth with a fine line of acidity. This actually surpasses my expectations. It has a natural sensibility, offering attractive blackberry and cranberry fruit, a sprig of mint, with a breezy, unpretentious finish that suits this down to the ground. You could almost broach this now, unusual for Figeac, but suffice to say it will offer a decade's worth of drinking pleasure, possibly more. Tasted July 2016. - Neil Martin, Aug. 2016
Wine Spectator: The plum and black cherry fruit has a floral edge, giving this version an elegant feel overall, while subtle tobacco, singed tea leaf and wood spice notes fill out the lengthy finish. This lovely wine has dropped serious muscle since the barrel tasting and is showing elegance and finesse that belies its age. Best from 2015 through 2025. 8,330 cases made. - März 2014
Vinous: The 2011 Figeac has a detailed, focused bouquet with red berry fruit, undergrowth and a touch of pressed violet. Perhaps now accustomed to the Figeac wines post-2013, it comes across a little simplistic and rough hewn. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, notes of blackberry, smoke and a touch of graphite, midways between Left and Right Bank in style. What is does not have is the depth, harmony and sophistication of the most recent vintages under Frederic Faye, a mark of how far this property has come in a short space of time. Tasted at the annual CVBG tasting. - Neil Martin, Jul. 2018
