Description

Avvoltore is the company’s flagship wine and the pride of creator, Adolfo Parentini. Resulting from the blending of indigenous Sangiovese with untraditional Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah all grown in the clay-limestone soil of the Avvoltore Hill, this wine marks a milestone for the Moris family's legacy of producing high quality wines in the Tuscan Maremma. The name Avvoltore is the local dialect word for a bird of prey often seen circling the most iconic hill on the Poggetti Estate by the same name.

Morisfarms

Three hundred years ago the Moris family left Spain to reach the Tuscan Maremma, a divine land of wine: a dream of love came true. Today, Morisfarms is run by two of the Moris cousins: Ranieri Moris and Giulio Parentini. Together, they passionately maintain Adolfo Parentini’s proud legacy of producing high-quality wines that truly reflect the terroir in which they are grown and the traditions in which they are produced.

Tuscany

Tuscany, one of Italy's most renowned wine regions, is celebrated for its exceptional and diverse wines. Known for its picturesque landscapes and ideal climate, it benefits from a range of terroirs, from rolling hills to coastal areas. The area is particularly famous for its red wines, notably Chianti, made primarily from Sangiovese grapes, which offer bright acidity, cherry flavours, and earthy undertones. It also produces prestigious wines such as Brunello di Montalcino, a full-bodied red with complex flavours and excellent ageing potential, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. For whites, Vernaccia di San Gimignano is noted for its crisp, refreshing character. Tuscany blends traditional winemaking with innovative techniques, offering a rich and varied wine experience.
