The Fattoria le Pupille 2022 Morellino di Scansano Riserva is primarily Sangiovese with a small addition of Cabernet Sauvignon that adds concentration and draws the wine toward a black-fruit spectrum while reflecting the warmth of a hot vintage. Still youthful, the wine’s 15 months in large oak casks reveal well-managed structure and tannins, with crunchy fruit lifted by notes of rose and violet. Careful attention to preserving acidity balances the depth and ripeness of the year, placing this wine about three-quarters along the estate’s scale of intensity and highlighting the precision of the winemaking approach.
