Mora & Memo, Tino, Vermentino di Sardegna, DOC Sardinia, Italy, 2024

Producer Profile

The beautiful estate of Mora & Memo sits high in the hills of south-eastern Sardinia, just a few kilometres from the sea, where it is focused on growing the indigenous varieties of Cannanou and Vermentino.

The combination of old vineyards and minimal intervention with a delicate touch in the winemaking results in a range of elegant, vibrant and mineral wines that are representative of their island terroir, executed in a modern way.

Viticulture

The vineyards average 30 years of age with vines planted on a south, south east exposure on limestone and clay hillsides around 200 to 200m above sea level.

Winemaking
