The 2009 Erik Banti Morellino di Scansano Riserva Ciabatta is not a type of bread, it is Erik's signature wine made from 100% Sangiovese aged for one year in 10-hectoliter Slavonian oak barrels. You're going to love this wine, it exudes flavor, and not frilly melted jello artificial flavor, but grapes, earth, sweet leather, raw meat and a touch of the Maremma outback. The most dominant characteristic, however, is its supple texture, remarkable depth and precocious power, which give the wine an awesome palate presence. This is such a good wine at this incredible bargain price. You need to try it with a big dry-aged T-Bone on the grill, drizzled with a little Tuscan Extra Virgin olive oil. You'll have yourself an experience even Erik would smile at! This vintage is 100%Sangiovese. (Greg St. Clair, K&L Italian Wine Buyer)
