Comment on noteThe wine
I invite you on a sensory journey to the heart of Tuscan Maremma, where the sun caresses the hills and where a wine of rare authenticity is born. This Morellino di Scansano from the Le Lupinaie estate is a promise of freshness and elegance, a true gem to discover.
We are here in Tuscan Maremma, a hilly region of Grosseto, an ideal cradle for Sangiovese. It is here that this emblematic grape variety takes the local name of Morellino, and it is at the Le Lupinaie estate that it is raised with passion. The history of this estate is rooted in respect for this unique terroir, offering a wine that expresses all of its typicality.
This Morellino di Scansano, 2024 vintage, is crafted with particular attention to preserving the purity of the fruit. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks, followed by maceration on the skins. The wine then benefits from aging of at least one year, including a brief passage in wood, a technique that enhances the fruity aromas without ever masking them. In your glass, it reveals itself with a brilliant ruby red color. On the nose, you will be charmed by intense aromas of cherry and wild strawberry, enhanced by light spicy and balsamic notes. On the palate, it offers beautiful sapidity, soft tannins and balanced acidity, giving the whole a remarkable freshness and harmony.
This Morellino di Scansano is an ideal companion for your meals. I particularly recommend it with grilled or roasted red meats, a dish of pici with wild boar ragù, typically Maremman, or with aged cheeses. Imagine it on your table, during a dinner with friends or a moment of relaxation, it will enhance every moment with its authentic character and liveliness. Let yourself be carried away by this wine that embodies the spirit of hidden Tuscany.
