Description
Morellino di Scansano Riserva DOCG, Fattoria Le Pupille, Tuscany, Italy, 2020
Grape: 90% Sangiovese & 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, 14ha vineyard on sandstone/clay soil, 15 months' ageing in large Slavonian oak vats
Fattoria Le Pupille, owned by Elisabetta Geppetti, is a well known 75ha estate located in the Maremma region on the Tuscan coast. Famed for its "Saffredi" flagship Bordeaux-style wine and their 100% Syrah, "Le Pupille", the majority of production is for Morellino di Scansano wines.
Deep and bright ruby colour. Fine perfumes impact of blackberry and blueberry jam, blackcurrant and mint; it opens on aromas of Mediterranean bush, red orange, tobacco and black pepper. The mouthfeel is round and tasty; it shows a dynamic structure, embodied with a beautiful freshness in which the silky tannic texture constitutes an excellent basis for a long term bottle maturation. Very persistent on citrus notes.
Good enough to be listed by Michelin 3-star restaurant!
Food Pairing: Grilled pork belly with currant sauce, tagliolini with lamb ragout.
