點擊次數(shù)：6790

The medium to dark ruby-colored 2000 Sangiovese Walla Walla Valley sports an exuberant nose of red cherries, spiced oak, jammy blackberries, and a myriad of spices. Medium-bodied, this expansive wine is loaded with dark berry and red currant flavors intermingled with hints of asphalt. Well-structured, it has admirable depth of fruit and a high tone, tangy, tannin-filled finish. Drink it over the next 6 years. Tel. (509) 525-1428

Walla Walla wineries are turning out some pretty delicious Sangiovese these days, and Leonetti always seems to lead the pack. This is plenty tannic, stuffed with rich cherry fruit and nuanced with leather and tobacco. Really pretty with soft tannins and lots of sweet cherry flavor. —P.G.——P.G.(9/1/2002)—— 91
