HARVEST NOTE

Morellino di Scansano is a dry red wine from the coastal hills of southern Tuscany in Italy. One of the region’s lesser-known DOCG wines, it sits, somewhat underappreciated, in the shadow of its more famous counterparts from Chianti, Montalcino, and Montepulciano.

The wine is produced in the rolling hills around the medieval village of Scansano.

TASTING NOTE

Dark intense purple color. Complex spicy and mineral notes lead to fruity aromas, round body, light acidic note well harmonized with powerful alcohol. Nice balsamic nose finish.
