Fuori Mondo

After advocating citizens’ issues at the European Parliament for about 12 years, Olivier Paul-Morandini changed his life after having fallen in love with a wine from Maremma on the Tuscan Coast and became in 2009 wine producer of probably one amongst the smallest wineries in Tuscany. Besides his Cabernet Sauvignon, Olivier has been working on monovarietal cuvées of local grapes with for sure some Sangiovese but also an Alicante Nera and a Ciliegiolo. Located on the Maremme hills, on the famous Etruscan coast, Fuori Mondo vineyards are located 150-180m above sea-level on clay/schist land facing south/south-east. Nestling amidst a number of national parks, the vineyard, Volpaiole basks in the influence its wealth of natural flora and very diverse mix of fauna. In the Tuscan dialect, the word Volpaiole means 'Fox corner'. The animal's head was stylised by a German painter as a symbol of the vineyard. Volpaiole thus represents the location where the Fuori Mondo vine terroirs are to be found, branching out into four wines: Lino, Pema, Amae and D'Acco.
