Just such a sleek and supple style, filled with woodland fruits, briar, plum and fragrant herbs. Lovely feel and grip, lots of ripe berry fruit in the core, then delicate aniseed and herbs. Great with stews, roasts and oven roasted veg. L&S (Oct 2023)

*Case price discount: Mix any 12 bottles of wine (or 9 litre equivalent) or 6 bottles of Champagne, Spirits, Sweet Wine or Fortified (4.5 litres) to get the discounted 'case price' for each bottle.

The certified organic Mormoraia 2021 Chianti Colli Senesi Haurio has a lot of bold primary fruit that feels ripe and soft in texture. Those primary notes are layered into toasted spice and sweet oak. In all, the wine reveals a medium to large mouthfeel, and much of that extra texture is driven by sweet ripeness. The wine is aged in both stainless steel and oak. Some 30,000 bottles were released.

Mormoraia

Alessandro Passoni is the second generation here to run this beautiful estate since his father bought the old convent back in 1980 and started to regenerate the vineyards. The name comes from the property's religious history as a convent, with the murmur of the nuns as they recited their prayers that once emanated from the walls like a 'Mormoraia'.

Pino Passoni and his wife Franca passed over the reins to their children in 2012 and the farm has been worked organically since 2013. This is an estate on the move with energy and ever better practices in the vineyards and clever gentle work in the cellar. The results are great and these wines get better and better!
