About this product
The estate Morellino, from Le Pupille's coastal Maremma vineyards, displays the variety's characteristic warmth and accessibility: dark cherry, dried herbs, tobacco, and a plummy richness that sets Morellino apart from the more austere Chianti styles. One of southern Tuscany's most reliable everyday reds.

Wild boar ragù is the Maremma's most celebrated dish, and Morellino di Scansano its natural companion; the wine's warmth and dark cherry character resonate with the game's earthy intensity while the pasta's starchiness softens the tannin.

Tuscan sheep's milk cheese and Morellino is a regional classic; truffle honey bridges the wine's warmth while farro bread's nutty earthiness grounds the simple but complete Maremma pairing.

The unusual red wine fish stew of the Tyrrhenian coast is Morellino's most distinctive food pairing; the wine's warmth and relatively light tannin can navigate the stew's rich tomato and garlic base.
