Morellino di Scansano DOCG 2022

Podere 414’s Morellino di Scansano is one of the main representatives of the appellation and constitutes a point of reference throughout the Maremma as regards the vinification of Sangiovese. The 15% of other grapes in the blend consists of Ciliegiolo, Colorino, Alicante and Syrah. Morellino di Scansano by Podere 414 has a round and fruity taste, is intense and above all immediately enjoyable. The vines have a predominantly sandy and loamy soil, poor in clay, and are conducted with organic farming since the foundation of the winery. What most characterizes the area is the warm and dry climate.

The harvest is manual and takes place between mid-September and mid-October. Alcoholic fermentation takes place with indigenous yeasts in concrete vats with maceration on the skins for about 20 days. Pumping over and délastage are carried out periodically. After racking, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation. Finally it ages for a year in French oak tonneau.
