Label / history
The Moris family descends from Spanish settlers who arrived in Maremma, on Tuscany’s Mediterranean coast, more than two centuries ago. The family has worked in agriculture ever since, with winegrowing gradually becoming more prominent. Its approximately 500 hectares encompass vineyards, olive groves and the Poggio La Mozza and Fattoria Poggetti estates. The vineyards total 70 hectares and have mineral-rich clay soils.
