A blend of opposites among Bordeaux grape varieties, this melange of merlot and petit verdot gives the plummy generosity of the former and the firm texture and dark chocolate of the latter. It’s well-structured in tannins, deep in fruit flavors and able to age well for several years. Drink now or hold.
Looking at the 2021 Figlia, it's an interesting blend of Petit Verdot and Merlot. (Again, the percentages are a secret.) Its saturated purple hue is followed by a wonderfully pure, exotic, medium to full-bodied red that has loads of blue fruits, some floral, sage, and leafy herb notes, ripe, building yet polished tannins, and a great finish. It’s another brilliant wine in the lineup from this estate that shines on all accounts.
A blend of Merlot and Petit Verdot blend and clocking in at 14.3% alcohol, the 2021 Figlia presents a dark, juicy and firm character, featuring layers of dark red and purple resinous flowers. The bold and ripe nose is complemented by plenty of supporting oak essences. The medium to full-bodied palate is expressive, balanced and fresh, showcasing fine-grained tannins that gracefully melt away over the long, juicy and succulent finish. This stands out as the best bottling of Figlia to date, and given its quality and price point, stocking up on this wine is highly recommended.
The 2021 Figlia, a blend of Merlot and Petit Verdot, is captivating. The 2021 is dusty and floral yet also vividly fruit-focused, with cascading sweet herbal tones complementing its core of wild berry fruits. This is pure elegance. Cooling acidity and masses of ripe cherry and blueberry fruit are in perfect balance. Only gently tannic yet with a classic feel, the 2021 finishes with dramatic length and a cheek-puckering tart berry tinge. It's amazing to think this is a second wine from the Figgins estate
