Viticcio Morellino di Scansano is a distinguished red wine crafted with the finest Sangiovese grapes, complemented by Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Bearing the coveted Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita (DOCG) Morellino di Scansano, it embodies 85% Sangiovese, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 5% Merlot. Produced organically in Magliano in Tuscany's Poggio La Mozza region, the vines, situated at 150 meters above sea level with a North-Northeast exposure, thrive in sandy, sedimentary soils enriched with prevalent sandstone. The grapes, hand-harvested in September and early October, undergo fermentation at controlled temperatures in steel tanks, with a 12-day maceration period. The malolactic fermentation transpires in steel, followed by a refinement process of 12 months in 225 and 300-liter oak barrels and an additional 3 months in the bottle. This meticulous craftsmanship results in a harmonious blend, showcasing the regional terroir and the organic approach, delivering a wine with expressive notes of the Sangiovese grape, enriched by the nuances of Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.
