“Purosangue” 2018 Morellino di Scansano DOCG Terenzi
The “Purosangue” Morellino di Scansano DOCG 2018 by Terenzi is a precise and expressive interpretation of Maremma Sangiovese, combining energy, elegance and balance. Its name refers to the native “morelli” horses of the region, symbolizing strength and vitality—qualities clearly reflected in the wine.
The grapes are grown on deep, well-drained soils rich in skeleton, composed of coarse sands and clay, ideal conditions for achieving optimal ripeness and structural balance. Careful vineyard management ensures fruit quality and consistency.
Winemaking focuses on varietal purity, while aging follows a classic approach: 12 months in large oak casks, allowing slow and balanced maturation without excessive wood influence, followed by 6 months in bottle, enhancing integration and harmony.
In the glass, it shows a deep ruby red color with garnet reflections, indicating maturity and depth. The nose is rich and enveloping, with aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and plum, combined with spicy notes that add complexity.
On the palate, it is full-bodied, balanced and well-structured, with dense yet smooth tannins that provide grip without harshness. Fresh acidity supports the structure, while the finish is long, clean and persistent, with returning fruity and spicy notes.
Perfect with red meats, roasts and game dishes, “Purosangue” highlights the more refined and structured side of Sangiovese, while maintaining drinkability and balance.
A wine that combines Tuscan tradition and precision winemaking, ideal for those seeking an authentic and satisfying red.
