Esquisse de Tour Figeac, 2nd Wine of Ch. La Tour Figeac, 2014

La Tour Figeac was included as a Grand Cru Classé starting with the very first classification of Saint-Émilion in 1955.

The Rettenmaier family has owned and managed the estate since the early 1970s. The vines are tended and the wine made according not only to time-honoured Bordeaux traditions, but also to environmental protection and biodynamic principles. The estate produces its own compost, pigeage (punching down the cap) is practised, and many other natural methods are used.

With a First wine like that, the quality of the 2nd wine is 2nd to none.
