Cantina Vignaioli Morellino di Scansano 2020 Morellino di Scansano 'Roggiano', Tuscany

Scansano is a small town in the southern part of Tuscany near the coastal Maremma region.  Their local word for Sangiovese is Morellino.  Morellino di Scansano is the robust Sangiovese based wine that young people in Rome and Siena enjoy as their everyday wine.  Morellino di Scansano is bolder, darker and jucier than Sangiovese wines from the cooler Chianti area and delivers a softer, more approachable wine.  Cantina Morellino di Scansano delivers a great example of this enjoyable wine. Plump and vibrant, the medium bodied wine delivers plenty of ripe dark red cherry fruit, earthy undertones and a little spicy kick on the finish.  This is a fruit forward wine meant to enjoy young and fresh.
