INTERVIEW AND TASTINGInternational wine critic and Masterclass.com Instructor James Suckling recently interviewed and tasted with Chris Figgins, head winemaker for Leonetti Cellar and Figgins Family Wine Estates in Washington State. It was an instructive and fun session. Figgins is one of Washington’s most celebrated winemakers. He is impressed with the 2018 vintage, comparing it to the excellent 2012, and has taken to bottling single-varietal wine. He believes single-vineyard designated wines are the way forward. Listen to the podcast to hear Figgins explain why he started making single-vineyard wines, and why he thinks they have been so successful with Sangiovese and Aglianico wines.
