Top-notch Maremma producer Elisabetta Geppetti's Morellino di Scansano, an unoaked Sangiovese-based wine with just a dollop of Ciliegiolo and Alicante, offers intense aromas of sweet red cherries, redcurrants, liquorice and violet pastille that anticipate an immediately pleasing, open-knit palate. Smooth tannins frame the core of juicy red fruits alongside well integrated acidity, while hints of iodine, undergrowth and Mediterranean herbs emerge gradually and echo on the medium-long finish.
