2023 Mandriolo Sangiovese, Morisfarms, Maremma, Tuscany, Italy

The Moris Family, dedicated to organic viticulture in the Maremma region of Tuscany, have emerged as one of Southern Tuscany’s premier producers offering wines which have remained true to their origin while at the same time pioneering the exploration of non-Tuscan varietals. Over the years, the family has managed to stay true to their roots and offer excellent value at every price point. The Morisfamily has been in Maremma for over 200 years. While the actual surface area of the farm is 476 hectares and is divided into two properties, there are 70 actual hectares under vine.

From southern Tuscany this blend of 80% Sangiovese with 10% each of Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot from the organically-run Morisfarms estate is a flavoursome package with a nose of damson and plum following on to a smooth palate redolent of dark fruits.

It is medium bodied with a long finish, perfectly at home with tomato based Italian inspired dishes.

"Bright, bright ruby red. Very fresh and open nose, crunchy raspberry combined with juicy cherry. Fresh and very juicy on the palate, opens on clear fruit, simple and drinkable, harmonious finish, an appealing food companion with a great price-performance ratio!
