MorisFarms Morellino di Scansano Riserva (Red)

2020

Semi-translucent. Hints of floral spice, incense and pot pourri. Lovely fruit profile, with lots of black cherries, blackberries and hedgerow fruit. A little hollow on the mid-palate, which is a shame, as the tannins rear up really quite nicely on the finish - not overly-present or overly-extracted, but with a chalky, pretty crunch that's nicely backed up by rather generous (maybe excessively?) alcohol. Acidity is really juicy and is certainly carrying the wine. Pretty Morellino Riserva with nice typicity, but not quite going the extra mile and just slightly lacking in concentration.
