Sangiovese and Ciliegiolo, very dry, good acidity, soft tannins, good and long finish, needs time to evolve.

Morellino di Scansano DOCG 2011, 14%. Blend of Sangiovese and Cigliegiolo. I already tried this Morellino in April at Vinitaly (same vintage). Nice nose of red fruits. In the mouth it's sweeter than I remembered. 86/100

Morellino di Scansano DOCG 2011, 14%. Blend of Sangiovese and Cigliegiolo, maceration on the skins for 21 days, malolactic fermentation in oak barrels, aged 12 months in oak barrels, and 12 months in the bottle. Scents of ripe red fruits, a bit floral too. Very smooth in the mouth.

Nice wine. Strong taste. It is much better when let sit and aired. Fruity.

Principle wine of the winery. Traditional style of Sangiovese in Maremma Tuscany. Ruby red colour. Intense bouquet. Long end. Wine for long aging.
