| LE PUPILLE, MORELLINO DI SCANSANO There are a number of quality-minded producers hidden away in the coastal regions of Tuscany, of which one of the best is Le Pupille. Morellino is the local name for Sangiovese. The estate is owned by Elisabetta Geppetti and the wines are made under the control of flying-consultant Christian le Sommer (Châteaux Lafite and Latour) There is lovely fruit on the nose, full of dark cherries, blackberries, plums and red fruits. Medium bodied on the palate, and nicely textured although not luscious. Behind this approachable exterior there is a firm extract, and typical acidity. Rounded cherry fruit with a layer of oak, and a savoury twist on the finish. Easy drinking. |
