March 22, 2024 - Ordered and finished with friends at a restaurant. Did not decant as was not sure of the provenance, but cork was in good shape and the wine was showing very well with room to age and improve for another 5 years. The wine started showing its best after an hour with vigorous swirling and could use at least a 1 hour decant at this stage. Beautiful and perfumed bouquet of roses, flint, toast, blackberry, black cherry and Sous bois. Palate still rich with cassis, blackberry and some tart Rainier cherry. Toasted vanilla with very pleasant mineral undertones and tomato leaf/herb accents. No heat from 14.6% alcohol -- wine has come together very well. Glycerol mouthfeel while retaining medium plus acidity with fine, well integrated tannins. Medium plus body with added textural weight and a long finish. Impressed. This would be a great wine for any Bordeaux lover to have in their cellar.

4/16/2010 (link) ***** points(Leonetti Cellar Cabernet Sauvignon Walla Walla Valley) An outrageously enjoyable nose with toasty smoke and oak spices floating above earth aromas, licorice, and high-toned cherries. Rich but elegant on the palate with penetrating cherry fruit and a firm backbone of tannins. A seemingly endless finish. A beautiful expression of Walla Walla fruit in general and Leonetti estate vineyards in particular. Stands tall among the best wines produced in the exceptional 2007 vintage. Give three years to five years. 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot, 4% Carmenère, and 3% Malbec. Loess, Mill Creek Upland, and Seven Hills vineyards. Aged 22 months in new and neutral French and American oak
