Podere 414 Morellino di Scansano 2018

Tuscany, ItalyOwned by Simone Castelli, Podere 414 is a certified organic estate with 13 hectares of vines, situated in western Tuscany, straddling a river near Scansano. From the region's very stony soils, this morellino (sangiovese) is splashed with colorino, ciliegiolo, alicante, and syrah. Each variety is vinified separately before the blend goes into two-year-old barriques for one year, followed by additional bottle age before release. Deep, dark, and muscular, with wild cassis, blackberry, black cherry imbued with fragrant Tuscan garrigue and lifted with a pretty violet florality. Tannins are ample and grippy, supporting the wine to a stony finish. Drinking very well now, but will continue to develop for years in your cellar.Tasted: 04 November 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
