Enzo Boglietti and his brother Gianni switched from dairy farming in the late 1980s to wine production, using the 3ha of vines belonging to Enzo’s grandfather. A further 19ha have been inherited through Enzo’s mother. A leading modernist in the early 90s, Enzo was an exponent of smaller, newer barriques, and shorter, warmer fermentations, giving the wines rich, fruit-driven profiles with softer tannins. Sourced from Boglietti’s holdings across La Morra's top sites including parcels in Fossati, Case Nere, and Boiolo, the ‘La Morra’ is a beautifully composed blend that captures the essence of the commune. " Readers who have not tasted these wines in some time owe it to themselves to do so, as quality has exploded in the last few years. " Antonio Galloni, Vinous
