The 2008 Morellino di Scansano Bellamarsilia is an attractive red laced with perfumed red cherries, spices and minerals. There is a compelling purity to the fruit but enough structure to support just another 2-3 years in bottle, so readers will want to enjoy this sooner rather than later. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2013. Importer: Empson, USA, Alexandria, VA; tel. (703) 684-0900
