2023 Tenuta Torciano Morellino 'Bacco', Tuscany
Morellino di Scansano DOCG - makes with Sangiovese from Tuscany vineyards ml 750

Area of Production:

Scansano's viticultural origins date back to Etruscan times, and the quality of the local wines has been documented for centuries. This quality is largely due to Scansano's particular mesoclimate, itself created by a combination of factors.

The official viticultural zone covers a roughly square area about 25 kilometers (15 miles) across, topped and tailed by two rivers, the Ombrone in the north and the Albegna in the south. Scansano village itself lies towards the north of this area, just a few miles away from the Ombrone.

Grapes:

The Sangiovese grapes are born in the beautiful 12-hectare vineyard, with 20-year-old vines and others that are younger. The harvest begins in October and the vinification is done in steel tanks with maturation for a period of 12 months.

The refinement of the wine in the bottle continues for six months. This is an elegant and well-structured red, capable of satisfying the palate both in the short and long term.

Wine Description:

Bacco "Dolce Vita" Morellino di Scansano from Tenuta Torciano is born in vineyards located between the hills and the sea, in the splendid landscape of the Tuscan Maremma. It is mainly produced with Sangiovese grapes, harvested between the second half of September and the first week of October.

Bacco presents itself in a brilliant ruby red with slight purplish reflections. On the nose, it begins with intense fruity notes of cherry and raspberry. On the palate, it is vivid and fresh, with a tannic texture typical of the finest "morellino". On the palate, the finish is persistent, full, mellow, and balanced. Morellino is a full-bodied, not tannic to the nth degree, but with structure: so let’s choose red meats, T-bone steak, ribollita, lamb kebabs, gnocchi with Bolognese sauce, hamburgers, baked lasagna, truffle risotto, pasta amatriciana, brisket, pulled pork.

Wine Cellar:

Tenuta Torciano Winery is situated in the heart of Tuscany, 35 minutes from Florence and 20 minutes from Siena, surrounded by beautiful rolling hills and a succession of unique greenery that features towering cypress trees, long stretches of beautiful vineyards, olive groves, forests of oaks and lovely villages.

When you visit Tenuta Torciano Winery, you will totally immerse yourself in Italian culture, together with a Tuscan family consisting of 13 generations of wine producers. Here you will experience warm hospitality and additional Tuscan traditions handed down from father to son.
