Figgins 2022 Figlia Bordeaux Blend Walla Walla Valley

Product Details

(97 IWR) The 2022 Figgins Figlia Red Wine from the Walla Walla Valley is a captivating blend of equal parts Merlot and Petit Verdot, aged with restraint in just 11% new French oak. Aromatically complex, it unveils notes of ripe blackcurrant, crushed boysenberry, and dark plum, interwoven with espresso, lavender, and a whisper of fresh sage. Hints of graphite and cocoa powder add depth to the nose. The palate is lush and impeccably structured, delivering layers of velvety dark fruit, roasted coffee bean, and a touch of toasted herbs. Despite its richness, the wine maintains remarkable vibrancy, which lends precision and balance. Polished tannins create a supple, seamless mouthfeel, while a mineral-driven backbone carries through to an extended, refined finish. Better in 2026. A little over 1600 cases made. Highly recommended and editor's choice.

(96 JS) Ripe plums, cocoa powder, walnuts and dried herbs on the nose of this dark-fruited red. Violets, too. It's full-bodied, polished and structured, with firm and compact tannins, but it's silky and velvety in texture. Very long, caressing finish. A blend of petit verdot and merlot. Best after 2027.
