The wine region of Morellino di Scansano
Tuscan coastal DOCG in Maremma (Grosseto province), Sangiovese signature (min. 85%, called Morellino) on clay-limestone soils. Signature fruity accessible reds with notes of black cherry, blackberry, plum, violet, Mediterranean herbs and spice touch, round tannins and sunny mouth — maritime supple version of Sangiovese, to drink young. Warmer than Chianti thanks to coastal climate.
The wine region of Tuscany
Kingdom of Sangiovese: upright reds with cherry, plum, dried herbs and leather, lively acidity and firm tannins. Fleshy, food-friendly Chianti Classico DOCG, deep long-ageing Brunello di Montalcino (spice, tobacco, ripe black fruit), elegant Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. On the coast, Bolgheri crafts the opulent Cabernet- and Merlot-based 'Super Tuscans'. Some fresh white Vernaccia.
The word of the wine: Clone
