- Its nose is intense and complex, defined by sensations of ripe red fruit, sour cherries, plums, and spicy paprika and white pepper notes. It’s velvety and savoury on the palate with mouth-filling tannins and a persistent finish. The aftertaste returns fragrant hints of red fruit, tobacco, and cocoa.
Analytical data
dry
Located in the Maremma, Tuscany’s rising star of a region, the eye-wateringly beautiful Le Mortelle estate has belonged to the Antinori family since 1999. It is named after the wild myrrh – mortella – found in this part of the Tuscan coast, and indeed, the fostering of local flora and fauna is a central aim of the estate, which includes fifteen hectares of organic orchards in addition to the vineyards. Cabernet Franc has found a home from home in the warm, sea-breeze-tempered climate, bringing wonderful aroma and freshness to the red wine. For the white, classic coastal variety, Vermentino is joined by Viognier and Ansonica (the same as Sicily’s Inzolia), which is making a serious name for itself in the Maremma.
