Leonetti Cellar, the oldest and most popular winery in Walla Walla, and its CEO / Director of Winemaking Chris Figgins are the creators of FIGGINS, an ambitious single vineyard project that has as its ultimate goal the production of 3 wines of exceptional quality: Estate Red Wine, Figlia, and Dry Riesling. Located in southeastern Washington state but extending across state lines in the northeastern corner of Oregon, the AVA Walla Walla Valley covers 3,000 acres of premium vineyards that produce primarily red wines from Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon.
The Estate Red from Figgins is an elegant blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Petit Verdot that rests for 23 months in a mix of new and neutral French oak.
This is a full-bodied and balanced red with intense and complex aromas of black plum and raspberry, chocolate, cedar, dried flowers, graphite, and dry earth. In the mouth, the wine has a full body with an exceptional concentration of dark fruit, with notes of chocolate and nuts. The tannins are firm, the acidity is wonderfully integrated, and the finish is long and structured. Try it with a Rib-Eye steak or with lamb chops.
