Tasting Notes
Vibrant notes of raspberry with orange zest penetrate the nose followed by candied pecan and a whiff of wood dust. This Italian “snailion” thunders across the open range kicking up a tingling sensation of cranberry, pomegranate and racy acidity. As the dust of mild dark chocolate settles on the fruited plane behind the distant galloping snail, your bow legged pallet will be yearning for more.

  • What our customers say

    My Love Affair with Carmenere "This is the one that started it all for me. It was unlike anything I had ever tasted before."

    "Reininger Winery was one of the first wineries we visited in Walla Walla. We were welcomed and treated like family. We were very impressed with their dedication to producing wines that are true to varietal and well-matched with food. You definitely could say that an experience such as ours was factored in and influenced our decision to open our restaurants in Walla Walla."
    - Chris Ainsworth, Chef/Proprietor
    James Beard nominee '09, '10 and '12

    "As wine club members, we have always appreciated the consistency of quality in Reininger wines. Every bottle we have bought is great with food and stands among the best of Walla Walla wines. We love the personal feeling of the winery when we take friends and visitors by to taste. We truly feel like a part of the Reininger family!"
    - Phil and Carol Morgan, Walla Walla
