- Inviting smoky aromas with lots of blackcurrant fruit enhanced by chocolate and rich vanilla in a soft, easy style. Intense aromas of purple plums from the Sangiovese combine with softness and elegance from the late-harvested Cabernet Sauvignon. They are underpinned by sweet herbaceous notes from the Merlot to create a harmonious, smooth and velvety blend with a long finish.

Each grape variety was vinified separately. Fermentation occurred with selected yeasts at controlled temperatures in vertical stainless steel tanks with a submerged cap and lasted 12 to 14 days. The wine was then aged for six months in 30-hectolitre Slavonian oak barrels, followed by a minimum of three months in a bottle before release.

Winery | Umberto Cesari is located in eastern Emilia-Romagna, where the vineyards cover eight fields. The estate is protected by the Calanchi Azzuri- the local badlands- a dry terrain where softer sedimentary rocks and clay-rich soils have been extensively eroded by wind and water. The Calanche Azzuri forms a crown-like structure of clay-based rocks. This combination of clay soils and the mild climate promotes ideal conditions for premium viticulture. The average age of the vines used to produce Moma is 15 years, yielding 8,000kg per hectare. Careful canopy management ensures the optimum amount of sunlight and shade, encouraging the clusters to reach optimum maturity. The vineyards are cultivated sustainably, and the grapes are hand-harvested. |
