Avvoltore is the flagship wine of the estate and the pride of its creator, Adolfo Parentini. Born from the union of Sangiovese, traditionally used in Tuscan reds, with Cabernet
Sauvignon and Syrah, not widely used and known in the Maremma in 1988, all grown in the clay-limestone soil of Poggio dell'Avvoltore, this wine marks a milestone in the
Moris family's legacy of producing high quality wines in the Tuscan Maremma.
