The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon exudes juicy cherry, plum, and cassis, a bit of tannin and oak spice, while developing full-bodied, concentrated layers of earthy dried herb and graphite. With 6% Malbec added before aging 22 months in new and once-filled French oak, it is well-integrated and cohesive on the lengthy palate, with a finesse on the finish. ~95 Jeb Dunnuck
Cigar box, tobacco, black olives and black fruit on the nose, followed by a full-bodied, savory and structured palate. Firm tannins run the length of the wine. Long and tight finish. 94% cabernet sauvignon and 6% malbec. Try from 2028. ~ 95 James Suckling
The 2022 Cabernet Sauvignon entices from the glass with wild blueberries and plum mixed with sweet violet and lavender tones. It seduces with soft textures and a soothingly round personality, as crisp red and black fruits drench the palate in primary concentration. The finish is structured and impressively long, leaving crunchy tannins and a resonance of blue and purple floral tones. ~95 Vinous Media
A powerfully built red, with muscular tannins framed by black cherry, red currant, pencil shavings and dusky spices as this gathers tension and grip on the finish. Best from 2027 through 2035. ~93 Wine Spectator

What the Critics Said
THE PRODUCER
Leonetti Cellar
Leonetti Cellars was founded in the 1970s on one-acre of Cabernet Sauvignon and Riesling. The winery gradually expanded and achieved worldwide recognition as one of Washington's most sought-after cult wines. Leonetti Cellars' founding contributed to the rebirth of the Walla Walla wine industry.
The 1978 Leonetti Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon was featured on the cover of a national wine publication and touted as the best Cabernet of vintage. In the 1980s, Merlot from Leonetti Cellar helped put the Washington wine industry on the world's wine map.
