Scansano, land of Sangiovese and history

We are in Scansano, in the heart of the Maremma grossetana, a region where Sangiovese, here called Morellino, finds a unique expression. The Melini estate, with its history and intimate knowledge of this territory, cultivates these vines with passion. This wine is the fruit of fermentation in steel tanks, followed by maceration on the skins, a method that preserves the freshness and intensity of the fruit, before aging for at least one year.

When you pour this Morellino di Scansano, you are struck by its intense ruby red color, dotted with purplish reflections, a promise of liveliness. On the nose, a rich and complex bouquet offers itself to you: notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and plum, mingle with spicy nuances and a light herbaceous touch, bringing depth. On the palate, the balance is remarkable, the tannins are supple and well integrated, supporting a medium structure. The typical acidity of Sangiovese is perfectly dosed, offering beautiful freshness. The finish is long, fruity, recalling the aromas perceived on the nose, with a balsamic touch that adds to its complexity.

Delicious pairings and chosen moments

This Morellino di Scansano is an ideal table companion. Imagine it alongside grilled red meats, a flavorful roast, or aged cheeses.
