Foradori Vigneti delle Dolomiti Teroldego "Morei" 2024

100% Teroldego. Local dialect for "dark", "Morei" is a warmer, stonier 2.5 hectares on the Campo Rotaliano plateau near the winery in the foothills of the Dolomites. Elisabetta planted the vines in guyot from massale cuttings in 1984. The farming is certified-biodynamic and the harvest is by hand. The bunches are destemmed, with the grapes going directly into clay amphorae (tinajas from J. Padilla in Spain) for an open-top, spontaneous fermentation without sulfur; the vessels are then closed for 6-8 months of maceration.

Complex and complete, with sensations of crisp wild fruits, a mix of dried and freshly cut flowers, undergrowth and fine spices.  On the palate it is vibrant and mineral, with smooth and well-integrated tannins; savory and tasty length, long, persistent and clean finish. 12.5% ABV
