By Sean Sullivan
(FIGGINS Estate Red Wine Walla Walla Valley) An almost endless list of aromas including scorched earth, red and black fruit, bittersweet chocolate, floral notes, and licorice. Wound up tightly initially, the palate is dense and rich with fruit and earth flavors while remaining incredibly elegant. A seemingly endless finish. Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, and Merlot. Aged 22 months in French oak (70% new). 14.3% alcohol.

Beautiful out of a magnum. Still has some life left.

Sweet red fruit on the nose. Full bodied with a long finish. Very velvety with well integrated tannins. Lots of fruit up front with leather and maple coming through. Very good.

From tasting of several vintage Washington Cabs and Syrahs, no detailed notes.

May not be the equal of 2010 or 2012, but drinking very well, with some heat on the finish, I suspect this wine has at least 5 to 7 years more drinking window ahead of it.

Absolutely wonderful! If you have any left in the cellar, it's drinking beautifully now.
