Always so fresh and bright with nectarine, lime and almond blossom aromas and flavours. Persistent with lovely fresh fruit weight in the mouth, citrus and stone fruit, just a touch of fresh almond. The acidity lifts the wine and creates a mouthwatering delight. L&S (May 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.

Herbal citrus – grassy but also with the aroma of fresh almonds and a touch of blossom. More sour-fresh on the palate. Distinctive flavour that I find hard to describe, perhaps quince, wild grasses, but then a tiny hint of honey on the finish, even though it is dry. Fresh and vibrant. Good aperitif or with fish and seafood, I imagine. Drinking range: 2024 - 2026 Rating: 16.5 Julia Harding MW, www.JancisRobinson.com (Jul 2024)

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!
