ABOUT THIS WINE
The Morellino di Scansano Organic Val delle Rose 2021 is a red wine from the Maremma region of Tuscany, Italy. It is produced by Val delle Rose, an estate owned by the Tenuta della Famiglia Cecchi. The wine is primarily made from Sangiovese, locally referred to as Morellino, with a small percentage of other grape varieties. The Maremma region's climate, influenced by proximity to the sea, plays a role in the grape's development. The estate was acquired by the Cecchi family in 1996 and subsequently replanted, with a focus on organic farming practices.
