2022 Figgins Estate Red Walla Walla Valley 6pk 6x750ml

The 2022 FIGGINS Red Wine is a proprietary blend of of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot all coming from the Figgins Estate Vineyard. Stored in 70% new French oak, this delivers a knockout bouquet of graphite and tar alongside suggestions of huckleberry compote, mocha, and black licorice. The heady aromatics bring you back to the glass for more enjoyment. While this comes off initially aromatically reticent, after an hour of air this really sings in its high octave. The palate is plush as velvety tannins frame a glorious core of black and blue fruits, with menthol, dark chocolate shavings and stony mineral accents. This really needs at least another year or two of bottle age — but shows massive aging potential. ~ 98 Owen Bargreen

This has a fragrant array of cedar, bay leaves, cloves, dried flowers, walnuts and blackberries on the nose. It’s full-bodied but elegant and lively on the palate, with firm yet fine-grained tannins. Sleek, linear and poised. Very classy and fresh at the end. A blend of cabernet sauvignon, merlot and petit verdot. Try from 2028. ~97 James Suckling

A proprietary (and undisclosed) blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot from Figgins Estate Vineyard, the 2022 Estate Red Wine opens in an herbal, earthy intensity of sage, cedar, and crushed stone. The full-bodied density opens slowly on the palate to show floral aromatics and rich red fruit, structured to age another 12-15 years. ~96 Jeb Dunnuck

The 2022 Estate Red Wine opens with a cool-toned and remarkably pretty mix of dusty dried strawberries, mint leaf, sage and shavings of fresh cedar. It is deeply textural, silken and serene, with polished red berry fruits complicated by chalky mineral tones and a saturation of liquid rose toward the close. The 2022 finishes with fantastic length as sweet tannins resonate over a core of tart cherry, leaving a pleasantly chewy sensation. ~96 Vinous Media

Densely structured and a bit taut at the moment, this red offers robust flavors of black cherry and blueberry laced with tobacco and mineral tones. Gathers tension and tannins on the finish. Needs time. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2027 through 2035. 1,782 cases made. ~ 92 Wine Spectator
