Figgins Figlia Walla Walla Valley Red Blend 2018

Ratings on Delectable

Dr. Owen Bargreen Delectable Pro

Literally translated as ‘daughter’ in Italian, the 2018 ‘Figlia’ is a seductive blend of Petit Verdot and Merlot all sourced from the Figgins Estate Vineyard in the Walla Walla Valley. Aged in French oak for 23 months before bottling, this inky colored wine shows classic green bell pepper tones from the Petit Verdot, alongside pencil lead, blackberry coulis and creme de cassis tones that all meld in the glass. The palate is deep and inviting, with a massive degree of concentration but plenty of bright, mouth-watering acidity. Layers of blueberry pie, blackberry compote, mocha, creosote and exotic spices come together on the palate. The novelty here is really impressive. Intense and evocative, this is like nothing made in Washington State. Gorgeous in its youth, be sure to give the 2018 ‘Figlia’ a two hour decant if savoring in its infancy. Drink 2021-2040- 96
