Fattoria le Pupille Morellino di Scansano 2017

Incredibly soft with good structure on the palate

Incredibly soft with good structure on the palate deep ruby red in colour, this wine is dominated by intense aromas of violet, wild strawberries, myrtle, cherry, damp earth and mint on the nose. Incredibly soft with good structure on the palate, it has a lovely vein of acidity, firm tannins and a long, fruity finish.

The Morellino di Scansano is the wine which better represents, as well in quantitative terms, Fattoria Le Pupille’s wine production. Since its first vintage – 1985, it had always been a constant expression of its territory.

The name Fattoria Le Pupille is unequivocally tied to the production of red wines, the Sangiovese, the grapevine which can be considered prince of the property, embodies 70% of the vineyards and it is the soul of the diverse expressions of Morellino made by the winery. Malvasia Nera and Alicante are also present, adding up to 10%, three historic varieties of the territory, while on the ‘confrontational’ aspect of the territory prevails a 4% of Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Merlot, Syrah 2% and another 2% of Cabernet Franc. There are 9 hectares of vineyards for the white grape varieties: Traminer, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon.
