    Antonio Camillo Morellino di Scansano (Red) 2022 - OutstandingTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim

    Mostly translucent. A little restrained at first, opening up to pretty, lightly floral red fruit. Tannins are present and well-extracted, but remarkably silky and quite frankly shockingly ripe - it's a tannic wine, but with the tannins really playing to the strengths of a beautifully ripe wine. Not exuberant, but silky, easy-drinking, approachable - but not at the expense of class or extraction. Absolutely stunning wine. Modern, classy, ripe. Energetic and would not be out of place as a by-the-glass on a tasting menu in a Michelin-starred restaurant that isn't afraid of shaking things up.
