Watkins Ruscello Sangiovese 2022

Cold soaking after harvest and then two weeks on skins with eight months maturation. The fruit is from the Langhorne Creek. The wine is a soft crimson hue, while the nose exhibits some lovely and rather obvious varietal notes. Animal skins, bay leaves, roast meats, warm earth, raspberries and dried herbs, with sour red cherries on the finish. There is bright acidity running the length and a lingering finish. A joy to drink now but should continue to provide pleasure for at least half a dozen years.
