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.

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.
