Reininger Winery, Walla Walla Valley

Taste Washington! 2012 Recommended Wines.

In 1997, Chuck and Tracy Reininger launched their dream – owning a premiere winery in the Walla Walla Valley. Chuck sees himself as an intuitive winemaker with a strong connection to nature. He strives at all times to ensure that his wine is the best that it can be. I can attest to the quality and sheer deliciousness of his wines.  Reininger Winery is on my must visit list.

The Wines – I was so focused on tasting the wines, I neglected to take any photos.


2007 Merlot -  Lot of fruit, the hot sausage I ate before tasting wiped my palate, very tasty, like. 100% Merlot, Pepper Bridge and Seven Hills vineyards, ABV 14.2%, production 1072 cases, retail price $38. Recommended.


* Favorite: 2007 Carmenere - 100% deliciousness, spicy. 100% Carmenere, Seven Hills vineyard, ABV 14.5%, production 617 cases, retail price $47 . 




* Favorite: 2008 Syrah - Lovely, classic Washington Syrah, very good. 100% Syrah, Seven Hills, Pepper Bridge and Ash Hollow vineyards, ABV 14.5%, production 204 cases.
