Ripe black cherry and blackberry fruit backbone with some earth and herbaceous richness. Light but lush on the palate with tart blackberry acidity, some soft but present mouth-coating tannins. Suspecting whole cluster fermentation? Nearly perfect, just wanting a little less tartness on a damp November night. — 23 days ago
From a magnum. A fantastic wine. I have enjoyed Leonetti wines before, but this is my first experience with Figgins. Dense, complex and flavourful, with a long authoritative aftertaste, quite impressive. It’s almost ready, with many more years of life ahead of it. Better on 2nd and 3rd day when it completely opened up. Makes me want more.

Medium Ruby color with aromas dark red fruits, black tea and ample floral spice, aged in 20% new French oak for 10 months. On the palate flavors of black cherry, blackberry and plum with tobacco, cedar, black pepper, tea and vanilla spice. Soft fine tannins, long finish, well balanced with acidity, ending with fruit, herb, spice and earthy wet stone character. Nice! — 4 days ago
Another wonderful D2 vintage. Hits you with rich Merlot flavors and finishes with subtle Cabernet Sauvignon tannins. A real easy drinking wine. — 3 days ago

Stunning. Plump, juicy black fruit w/tinges of raspberry, wet soil, both substantial and ethereal. Thanksgiving parties on!! — 3 days ago
