MORELLINO DI SCANSANO 2015 DOCG
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer FATTORIA LE PUPILLE
Extremely deep intense purple colour. Intense, complex, spicy, attractive, ripe cassis-cherry-plum-apple nose. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, very bright, slightly spicy, very complex, ripe cherry-plum flavours with a very crisp, tangy, fresh finish. A satisfying, ready-to-drink Tuscan 85% Sangiovese with 10% Malvasia Nera and 5% Alicante is quite well priced and satisfying. Tasted once (unfortunately there was a hint of cork taint on the lab sample). The 2013 (**) was released on August 6, 2016 at $16.95.
