EXPERIENCE
A funky nose with plenty of oak. Nice balance of sweet and tart on the tongue with some citrus and acidity. Dry as it goes down with a long peppery finish. Well balanced with a wide range of flavors throughout the drinking.
VERDICT
GOOD AND CHEAP - €11.70 in our favorite Scansano shop means about $15 here in the US. A great price for a complex and balanced wine.
FACTS
Tenuta Pietramora's "Petramora" is a DOCG Morellino di Scansano made from 85% sangiovese and 15% merlot. The wine is aged in small French oak barrels for 7 months and for 3 more months in the bottle. The winery does have a website, though only in Italian... here is a Google translated link! We haven't been able to find this yet in the US, but hope to... any help?
