LACRIMA DI MORRO D'ALBA DOC

Lacrima is an autochthonous grape of the Marche, precisely in the area of Morro d’Alba, in the province of Ancona and has a long history, with documents attesting its presence already in the Middle Ages. The name «Lacrima» comes from the characteristic drop (or «tear») of juice that comes out of the grape when it is ripe. It is cultivated in the hills closest to the Adriatic Sea. The short maceration on the skins and the fermentation in steel on indigenous yeasts give the wine an extremely pleasant and authentic drink.
