Winery & Agriturism "Poggio Mori"
Organic Winemaking Excellence and Artisan Tradition
Poggio Mori is a small organic, family farm. Grapevines have been grown so as to obtain a high quality produce. The narrow vine spacing, about 8800 plants per hectare, grown with guyot training system and the selection of the best bunches directly from the vine keep yields per hectare deliberately low. So the fruit to be processed are healthy, perfectly ripe and rich in properties and well balanced compounds. All the work in the vineyards, from pruning to harvest, is done manually so that each plant receives the utmost care. Our main goal in winemaking is to enhance all the best characteristics that the growing season, the soil and the exposure have added to the fruit. Grapes of different varieties are picked separately, when they are perfectly ripe. After vinification, carried out by carefully checking every step, each variety is aged separately in clay jars, concrete and wooden barrels.
