The story
Poderi Morini was established in 1998. The first wines were the Sangiovese Riserva “Nonno Rico” and the passito “L’Innamorato”. From the start the estate focused on recovering Romagna native varieties and artisanal production; collaborators named include agronomist Luciano Lusa and oenologist Maurizio Castelli. The company website notes founder Alessandro Morini was recognized as an ambassador of Romagna wine during Vinitaly’s 50th year.
Production philosophy
"We add value to the Romagna we love." The estate combines attention to terroir and native varieties with a strong artistic component: artist-signed labels and a vision of the terroir as a 'blank canvas' where the vines express colours, aromas and flavours.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyards root between the yellow sands of the 'Sabbie di Imola' and the 'Blue Clays', in the transition strip between the foothills and the low hills of Oriolo in the Faenza area. The estate describes the terroir as fresh and savory, influenced by the Adriatic breeze and Apennine winds.
