Wine Expert Note:

Col di Bacche Morellino di Scansano displays a ruby red color. On the nose, it offers lifted aromas of red cherries, blackberries, blackcurrant and plums, accompanied by hints of dried herbs and a touch of earthiness. On the palate, this wine showcases a medium body with grippy tannins and a refreshing acidity. The flavors mirror the aromas, with vibrant red fruit notes taking center stage, supported by subtle herbal undertones. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a pleasant lingering impression.
