Winery Notes:
The “little sister” to the Estate Red, this Merlot and Petit Verdot blend has deep color to the rim. It sports a nose of vanilla cream soda, plum and blueberry compote, spring garden flowers, and thyme. Silky, sultry, and broad on the palate with fine-grained tannin and crisp acidity on the finish. We blend this wine to be more approachable in its youth than the Estate Red, and boy did the team knock it out of the park. The 2019 Figlia has remarkable freshness and is simply a delight to drink.

An inviting nose of plum, black cherry, grated horseradish and toasted thyme. Full-bodied with taught, fine tannins. There’s a lovely mineral through-line on the palate, keeping the ripe fruit bright and lively. Light on its feet, too. Graceful and nuanced. A total delight. A blend of merlot and petit verdot. Best after 2024.

The 2019 Figlia is a blend of Merlot and Petit Verdot that was raised in a mix of used barrels and oval botti. It has exotic red and blue fruits as well as pretty floral and sappy herb nuances on the nose. These all carry to a medium to full-bodied, pure, seamless, gorgeous Merlot that has silky tannins, no hard edges, nicely integrated acidity, and a great finish.
