Coming Up

The same place, the same name, the same responsibility: those are the terms that define the estate. Being both owner and winemaker means Diego Morra has carried the project from its broad direction down to the smaller cellar decisions that determine how the wines speak. Since 2006, Morra has kept that work in one place and under one hand.
Where They Are Now
