Figgins Estate Red Blend
Winemaker’s Notes
Impressively dark in the glass. The nose absolutely bursts with wild red fruits, floral notes, and spiced, grilled meats. On the palate, the texture is rich and velvety, building in complexity with layers of red and black fruit, warm baking spices, and savory depth. The finish is plush, powerful, and incredibly long. From the Miracle Vintage of 2022, this may be one of the most captivating expressions of the Estate Red to date.
Vintage Notes
If I had to name the 2022 growing season, I would give it the simple moniker, “The Miracle Vintage.” First, an impossibly late spring and “Juneuary” had us sweating bullets going into October. It was one of the coolest vintages of my career, especially at the high-elevation Figgins Estate vineyard. Then the record-setting warm October quite literally saved the vintage for us. These wines are simply stunning and are not to be missed!
