Morisfarms Avvoltore 2018
Avvoltore is the company’s flagship wine. The grapes are collected from vineyards planted on the “Poggio dell’Avvoltore” hill. Its clay-limestone soil produces a strong and powerful tannic structure. The first vintage was in 1988, the blend has changed very little since then and, in recent years, has always featured these grapes: Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. The name describes the Maremma Falcon, a bird of prey that often flies over these vineyards.

Colour

Ruby red with purple reflections.

Bouquet

Complex, with hints of ripe fruit and vanilla.

Flavour

Full-bodied and soft with a clear velvety feel.

Pairing

The powerful tannic structure pairs well with meat dishes, especially stews or even aged and flavoursome cheeses.
