LEONETTI CELLAR Sangiovese, Walla Walla Valley 2015

The 2015 Sangiovese was sourced from several vineyards including Serra Pedace, Seven Hills, Loess, as well as Mill Creek Upland. The wine is composed of 87% Sangiovese and 13% Aglianico and was aged for 22 months in 100% French oak prior to bottling. The nose is distinctly oaky with beautiful red cherry, cranberries and pomegranate aromatics. The mouthfeel is wonderful, with a great combination of tension and richness. There is a very intriguing mix of red and dark fruits on the palate with a touch of blood orange rind. Seductive and rich, showing some mild tannins, this gorgeous effort will drink marvelously over the next fifteen years. Try to resist this beautiful wine for at least another year.
