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.# β 3 months 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. Itβs 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.

Smelled like raspberry jam in the decanter, but much more mineral-like in the glass. Fruit-forward, but not overly so like many Syrahs. β 3 months ago
"Odedi"
Inky in color with a short reddish rim.
Showing a beautiful nose, once it opens up.
Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity and mouthfeel.
Showing blackberries, black currants, cooked cherries, cedar, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco leaf, herbs, cola, peppercorn, vegetables, spices and black tea.
Medium finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
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.
14.5% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
