Leonetti's Cab

[Zinner]

A few months back, I was in Walla Walla at "Leonetti Weekend" having made friends with some of the folks on that fabeled list who get to pick up the wines. Not normally a big fan of oak, I found myself liking Leonetti...particularly a bottle with a few years age that we opened later. The longer it sat in the glass and opened up, the better it got. Would have liked to have some to taste the next day(no, I'm not on the list). Thought Leonetti Sangiovese quite nice too.

But I also liked L'Ecole No. 41, Dunham and Woodward Canyon.

Ditto the Glen Fiona wines from Rusty Figgins. And the Syrahs from Cayuse. And the Viognier from Waterbrook.

And wineries are opening at a fast pace now in that part of the world. Hopefully there will be others that hit your palate right that are easier to get.
