| Winery | The vineyard is situated in DOCG Morellino di Scansano, in the hilly environs of the village of Scansano, in the Maremma region of coastal Tuscany. Morellino is the local name for the Sangiovese grape variety. The vineyard is planted at 150 to 180 metres above sea level. The microclimate benefits from mistral winds, which have a cooling and ventilating effect on the vines, imparting natural freshness to the grapes while keeping the canopies healthy. The spur-cordon-trained vines are predominantly orientated to the southeast to maximise sun exposure, encouraging the grapes to reach optimal phenolic maturity. The vines are planted at a density of 5680 per hectare and benefit from the sandy soil, rich in sandstone and fairly homogeneous; it is a warm, generally airy soil with good drainage properties. The combination of these factors allows for the slow and gradual ripening of the grapes, resulting in a wine of great freshness and balance. The vines are hand-harvested in three tranches between mid-September and late October. |
