Cantina Vignaioli Scansano honors DOCG Morellino di Scansano

In the southern part of Tuscany in the Maremma area, close to the Mediterranean Sea you will find the red wine of the morellino grape. Not at all as famous as close by Chianti but very interesting to catch up with for winelovers.
Travelling by car inland, its not more than 30 km from the main road that follows the shore of the Sea from Rome to Pisa. Make a right turn by Motalto di Castro and follow the road all the way to the small village of Scansano. Standing by the Church you can see all the way to the Sea.

Here the vineyards benefit from the breeze, and are rarely affected with fungus disease and if so would be its more likely that the 170 grovers of Cantina Vignaioli Scansano are ahead of the disease (they work with high tech like drones and weather monitors) and can prevent, or be ahead of, damages. This actually means that they use less pesticides.
