ILatium Morini, Valpolicella Ripasso Superiore, DOC, Ciliegi, Veneto, Italy, 2020

The seven brothers and cousins involved in ILatium Morini changed their approach in 2004, when they decided to keep the best grapes from their vineyards to make wine themselves.

Since then, a torrent of accolades, including glowing reviews from Jancis Robinson, would suggest that they made the right decision. Now at the forefront of the ‘new wave’ of Soave, Valpolicella and Amarone production, their wines combine beautiful fruit concentration with fresh, bright acidity.

Intense garnet in colour with ripe cherries, herby and earthy aromas. A warm and dry sour cherry palate in the fore, with loads of intensity of raisins and sultanas and a rich fresh soft tannic finish.

Corvina 70%,
Rondinella 20%,
