Tasting Notes

Strozzi’s Morellino di Scansano is made with 100% estate-owned sangiovese grapes sourced from the family’s estate of Poggio Moreto, near Grosseto, in southern, coastal Tuscany. Vinification takes place on the skins for about 10 days at controlled temperature in stainless steel. To preserve the fragrance of aromas, the wine does not see any oak aging.

The result is a bright ruby red wines which offers an intense bouquet of red fruit and berries. Good structure with elegant tannins and a long, persistent finish. It is the perfect partner for a variety of risottos, roasted pork or steak Florentine.

With the 2017 vintage Strozzi’s Morellino di Scansano features a new orange label.
