Founded in 1977 by Gary and Nancy Figgins, Leonetti Cellar was Walla Walla’s first commercial winery and the founding father of the Walla Walla wine industry. What started as a dream over 40 years ago has become a true success story, resulting in a collection of brands cultivated by the Figgins Family – dedicated to growing, producing, and marketing wine and food of world-class quality, sustainability, and pedigree. This tradition is carried on today by the next generation of the Figgins family, Chris as the President and Winemaking Director, and Amy as the Estate Manager.
Join us for a celebration featuring these esteemed wines, led by Beau Hickman, Figgins Family Wine Estates President of Sales and Operations.
