The wine

Morellino di Scansano Frescobaldi: The Soul of the Maremma

Let me guide you to a Tuscan gem, a wine that whispers the history and generosity of the Maremma. The Morellino di Scansano DOCG from Frescobaldi, from the Santa Maria estate, is an encounter with authenticity, a crunchy and enveloping expression that will charm you.

The Terroir of Santa Maria: A Jewel Case for Sangiovese

This wine was born in the heart of the Maremma, in the Scansano region, where the Frescobaldi Santa Maria estate cultivates its vines. The mild climate of this coastal area, combined with varied clay-limestone soils, offers an ideal environment for the king grape variety of Tuscany: Sangiovese. It is from this union that the complexity and refined aromatic profile of this Morellino are born. Frescobaldi's winemaking tradition, rooted in Tuscan history, can be found in every bottle, testifying to a savoir-faire passed down through the generations.

In 2024, this Morellino di Scansano presents itself in a robe of intense and brilliant red. On the nose, I immediately perceive notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and raspberry, interlaced with delicate spicy touches and subtle floral nuances. It is an engaging bouquet, inviting tasting. On the palate, it reveals a remarkable balance. The tannins are soft and velvety, caressing the palate, while a pleasant freshness brings liveliness. The persistence is long and flavorful, leaving a lasting impression of fruits and spices. The vinification in steel tanks, followed by maceration on the skins, preserves the fruit's brilliance, while six months of aging in oak barrels adds depth and additional complexity, with a well-integrated hint of vanilla.

Gourmet Pairings and Special Moments

This Morellino di Scansano is an ideal companion for your meals. I particularly recommend it with grilled or roasted red meats, where its structure and aromas will pair wonderfully. It will also happily accompany game dishes or aged cheeses, revealing new facets with each bite. Let yourself be carried away by this sensory journey to the heart of Tuscany, an invitation to share a moment of conviviality and discovery. It is a wine that will speak to you of the land, the sun, and the passion of men.
