Morellino di Scansano Riserva 2006 Tempo, Terre di Talamo |
|
Another outstanding wine from Marco Bacci group, this one is a standout Riserva DOC from Maremma. Morrellino is the name for the local clone of Sangiovese that grows in this cool enclave of Tuscany. Antonio Galloni's review in the Wine Advocate rates it 91 points saying "The 2006 Morellino di Scansano Tempo Riserva is a darker wine laced with smoke, earthiness grilled herbs, black cherries and an array of darker aromas and flavors. Still quite brooding, this masculine, intense Morellino will require a measure of patience, something I don’t think I have ever written about a Morellino in the past. Make no mistake about it, this is a serious wine. The Riserva is 90% Sangiovese, 5% Alicante, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon." At under $20 this wine is an AMAZING value!!
