Château Figeac – Premier Grand Cru Classé A

A Premier Grand Cru Classé A with a unique signature — combining power, refinement, and freshness.

A Historic Name in Bordeaux

Château Figeac is one of the most iconic estates in Saint-Émilion, a true monument on Bordeaux’s Right Bank with origins dating back to the Gallo-Roman era. Owned by the Manoncourt family since 1892, Figeac has always stood out for its singular identity. In 2022, the estate joined the exclusive circle of Premier Grand Cru Classé A, a recognition of its consistency, elegance, and long-term vision.

A Rare Terroir on the Right Bank

The 54-hectare vineyard, in a single block, lies on deep gravel soils over a clay-sandy subsoil — a rarity in Saint-Émilion. This unique geology gives the wines a straight, fresh, structured character, often reminiscent of Médoc crus.
