The 2010 Morellino di Scansano Heba bursts from the glass with succulent dark cherries, flowers, mint and sweet spices. This racy, sexy Morellino needs to be enjoyed over the next few years while the fruit retains its juicy, forward personality. The 2010 is a great Heba, and a stunning value. Once again, the Heba is one of the very finest bargains readers will find in all of Italy. In 2010 the blend is 93% Sangiovese and 7% Syrah. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2016. Fattoria di Magliano has long been one of my favorite estates in the southern part of Maremma, but I don’t think I have ever tasted such a complete and consistent set of wines here.
