13-year-old Washington cab from this celebrated winery. Getting near the end of life in my estimation, took a while airing out to soften up a bit.# — 3 months ago
Well balanced and smooth finish. — a month ago
Smelled like raspberry jam in the decanter, but much more mineral-like in the glass. Fruit-forward, but not overly so like many Syrahs. — 2 months ago
Delicious Thanksgiving wine with notes of soy sauce and baking spice — a month 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.

Big and bright! Light clove and blackberry. Memories of Gino are bright with this one! Miss you big guy! 🕊️ — 3 months ago
Dark ruby/Inky in color with a wide reddish rim.
Stinky nose, as expected, and dry on the palate with nice complexity.
Full-bodied and smooth, with medium acidity and long legs.
Showing black fruits with wood, earth, vegetables, spices, barnyard, dark chocolates, tobacco leaf, tar, black tea and bitter herbs.
Medium finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a unique Syrah from Walla Walla Valley. Rich and extracted. Soft and elegant. Very much 'in your face' kind of wine.
This 7 year old is still young, and needs a few hours to open up properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.
This Single Vineyard is nicely balanced and complex with a nice mouthfeel. Not my usual style, but very tasty.
I've had a few vintages of this wine and it always delivers.

This 6 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from Walla Walla Valley is drinking very nicely now.
Drinking at its peak, and will continue to drink nicely in the next few years. I had it 3 years ago, and it is drinking very similar.
Needed 30 minutes to open up, and remove some of the bitterness.
The nose is very complex at this point. Really beautiful.
100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were aged for 18 months in (35% new) French oak barrels.
