About Ilatium Morini:
The seed of the entrepreneurial idea was planted by founders Luigi and Giuseppe Morini, who in 1980 decided to join forces and their lands too, to let a small family-run winery take roots, with the purpose of cultivating the fruits of the earth, particularly grapes, delivered in the past at the local Cantina Sociale – copperative winery.
Over the years, the progenitors’ son (founder’s sons), the seven Morini brothers and cousins, joined in the company, bringing their energy and skills to modernize the family business.
To the winery’s historical lands, located in the Val d’Illasi, in 1992 were added vineyards in the heart of the Val di Mezzane, surrounding an old farmhouse from the early 1900s that, in the not-too-distant future, would become the heart of the Ilatium Morini winery.And it’s from the beginning of the new millennium, in 2001, that Ilatium Morini winery was officially founded. The winery’s first headquarters found space in a small garage in the old family courtyard, where in the past the Morini family would gather to share stories and memories of a life spent in the countryside.It was soon realized, that the first location, rich in memories, was too small to contain the dreams and desires of the seven young owners. So, in 2006, in Val di Mezzane lands, it was decided to build the new and modern winery, the current headquarters of the business.
