Congratulations to Waters Winery, DeLille Cellars and Olsen Estates -

All Honored on Paul Gregutt’s 2007 Top 100 Washington Wines List

As 2007 draws to a close, Seattle Times wine columnist Paul Gregutt recognizes “The year's best Washington wines” in his December 19, 2007 article.

§   Olsen Estates 2006 Chardonnay ($28) www.olsenestates.com.

Located in Prosser, the new Olsen Estates winery made their first appearance on a ‘best of’ list with only their whites released!  Reds are on their way in ’08.

§   Waters Winery 2005 Columbia Valley Syrah ($25) www.waterswinery.com

Renowned for his Syrah, Waters’ winemaker Jamie Brown is also responsible for creating the JLC 2004 Spafford Station Estate Syrah, also appearing on Gregutt’s Top 100 list. Look for more accolades to come Brown’s way on the newly released single vineyard Syrahs from some of Walla Walla ’s most exclusive vineyards – Loess (Leonetti

§   DeLille Cellars 2006 Chaleur Estate Blanc ($34) www.delillecellars.com

And for DeLille Cellars, Gregutt’s list is the fourth Top 100 List for the winery this year, the only winery in the world to have this distinction. DeLille’s wines were also recognized on Wine Spectator’s 100 Most Exciting Wines of 2007, Wine Enthusiast’s Top 100 Wines of 2007, and the Robb Report’s Top 100 Wineries of the World.
