Winemaker’s Notes
My favorite Figlia to date! Very dark crimson color. The bouquet opens with baking spices, cinnamon, ripe boysenberries, and follows with more subtle aromas of cranberry sauce and menthol. A wine of dimension that starts off with a sultry softness and expands into a full-bodied structure with rich notes of warm raspberry cobbler. The finish is silky, balanced, and full. Incredibly approachable today.
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!
