2015 Leonetti Cellar Serra Pedace Vineyard Aglianico Walla Walla Valley

Tasting Notes

Inky darkness to the rim. The nose is loaded with spiced plumb, tobacco, and dried dates. Four full years in clay amphora and oak casks have created absolutely seamless tannins, beautiful profile of red fruits, and a mouthwatering, creamy acidity I can’t get enough of. Our third release of Aglianico, and our finest yet. Aglianico is a very late ripening variety, and it is often November before we harvest. 2015 was one of our warmest years on record and this variety is absolutely glowing this year, having been harvested at the peak of its ripening curve.
