Lacrima di Morro d’Alba
Filter
Lacrima di Morro d’Alba is a distinctively aromatic red wine grape native to the Marche region of central Italy. Named for its tendency to "weep" teardrop-like drops of juice when fully ripe, this ancient variety was nearly extinct before a dedicated revival in the 1980s. The resulting wines are often celebrated for their floral notes and berry-forward characteristics.
