The 2015 Walla Walla Sangiovese exhibits promising aromas of red berries, dried herbs, cedar and baked soil that scream Sangiovese. On the palate, it's medium-bodied, with an attractively supple attack and a good core of juicy, bright fruit, but firm, hard tannins clamp down on the finish, rendering the wine inscrutable. It's hard to imagine that even extended cellaring will temper its structural assertiveness, and I suspect this isn't going to go down as a benchmark rendition of this typically impressive cuvée.
