Avvoltore 2011 75cl

Split among two of the finest wine-producing regions in Italy, Moris Farms has become one of Southern Tuscany’s premier producers. The Moris family traveled from Spain nearly 200-years-ago, and due to their elegance and profound dedication, the estate has remained under the Moris name since its founding. The family-owned estate spans 476-hectares wide, 70 of which are planted to vines. Thirty-seven hectares fall under the maritime-influenced Monteregio di Massa Marittima DOC, while the remaining 33-hectares of vines qualify as Morellino di Scansano. The property is an excellent source of distinctly intense and robust Tuscans. Avvoltore is at the pinnacle of their production, the wine has even developed its own cult following over the years. Today, this powerful Sangiovese-based blend grows with great vigor and complexity with 6-8 years’ cellaring. The proportions of Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah also play a major role – resulting in a richer, more floral and fruity flavored high-quality wine.
