Château Yon-Figeac, Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Grand Cru Classé 2019

Château Yon-Figeac 2019 is a refined Saint-Émilion Grand Cru Classé that combines the plush generosity of Merlot with the structure and lift of Cabernet Franc. Produced from a single 24-hectare estate in one block, it draws on a highly regarded terroir associated with Figeac and Cheval Blanc, giving it both depth and distinction. An added mark of quality is that even the estate’s second wine is classified as Saint-Émilion Grand Cru.

Tasting Notes
Expect a deep ruby colour with attractive concentration and a polished edge. On the nose, this vintage should offer ripe black cherry, plum, and blackberry, layered with violets, cedar, graphite, and a touch of spice from the Cabernet Franc. The palate is typically supple and full of ripe fruit, balanced by fresh acidity and fine tannins that bring shape and elegance. It should feel generous yet precise, with a long, harmonious finish and the structure to age gracefully for several years.

Production
The estate spans 24 hectares planted as a single, contiguous vineyard with 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc, situated on one of Saint-Émilion’s most prized terroirs. The location benefits from soils and exposure reminiscent of the great neighbouring sites of Figeac and Cheval Blanc, helping to produce wines with richness, freshness, and complexity. Harvesting and vinification details are not specified, but the estate’s Grand Cru Classé status reflects a careful, quality-driven approach throughout production.

Food & Serving
This wine is an excellent match for roast lamb, duck breast, entrecôte, beef fillet, and mushroom-based dishes, as well as truffle-infused cuisine or aged hard cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for about 1 hour if drinking young to allow the aromatics and texture to खुल fully.

Producer
Château Yon-Figeac entered a new era in 2005 when industrialist Alain Château acquired the property and pursued it as a deeply personal project. Under his ownership, the château has strengthened its reputation in Saint-Émilion, helped by its exceptional vineyard site and the recognition of its second wine as Saint-Émilion Grand Cru. This combination of privileged terroir and quality consistency makes the estate a noteworthy name in the Right Bank.
