Katie at Travel + Wine writes about Rosés including our own 2009 Helix Rosé
Last but not least, this new dry Rosé comes from Reininger Winery, one of my favorite wineries in all of Walla Walla. This delicious blend showcases aromas of grapefruit, watermelon, and red berries. Elegant and tart, this Rosé is a pleasure on the palate, with bright flavors of strawberries and cherries. Enjoy!
Paul Gregutt Writes About Reininger’s 2006 Carmenère
“I’ve never counted myself among those who believe [Carmenere] has much of a place or a future in this state as a varietal wine, but Chuck Reininger may yet change my thinking. . . . All by itself [Reininger's 2006 Carmenere] makes a strong claim for being the best Carmenère in Washington, if not the country.” Read more at paulgregutt.com
