Description

Discover the Podere 414 Morellino di Scansano 2021, a wine that embodies the transformation of once uncultivated land in the Tuscan Maremma into a source of winemaking excellence. This wine represents the passion and innovation of Simone Castelli, heir to Maurizio Castelli, a renowned winemaker who contributed to shaping the wine history of Tuscany.

Origins and Evolution:

• Founded on land assigned by the Ente Maremma in 1960, Podere 414 has evolved under the guidance of Simone Castelli since 1998, refining viticulture and winemaking techniques to best express the character of Sangiovese, enriched with a touch of Ciliegiolo.
• Initially oriented towards wines of great concentration and use of wood, the Morellino di Scansano of Podere 414 have gained in balance and complexity, maintaining an important structure.

Unique Features:

• Aromatic Profile: A surprising expression that combines red fruit, chocolate, and earthy and undergrowth notes with incredible intensity.
• Palate: Powerful but balanced, with freshness, flavor, and sweet and enveloping tannins that contribute to a long-lasting finish.
• Comparison: Tasting it blindfolded could evoke the sensations of a great Brunello di Montalcino; however, it turns out to be an exceptional Morellino di Scansano, one of the best I have ever tasted.
