The Morellino di Scansano is a consistently reliable wine from the region, as it is again in 2006. This juicy, medium-bodied red offers plenty of ripe fruit with the telltale warmth and volume of Tuscany's Maremma. This immensely pleasing red is best enjoyed on the young side. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2011.
Proprietor Elisabetta Geppetti has been making terrific wines for some time at Le Pupille, her property in Maremma.
