Wines made from Sangiovese grapes of Lacrima di Morro d'Alba
Discover the best wines made with Sangiovese as a single variety or as a blend of Lacrima di Morro d'Alba.
Firm, upright reds with precise acidity and angular tannins, showing aromas of sour cherry, plum, dried herbs, leather, black tea and balsamic notes. Characteristically bitter, savoury finish. Star of Chianti Classico DOCG, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG and Morellino di Scansano. Italy's most planted variety, a descendant of Ciliegiolo × Calabrese di Montenuovo.
DOC of the Marche around Ancona, the rare and indigenous Lacrima grape with thin skin that "weeps" at maturity. Semi-aromatic red signature of unique identity: vibrant profile with old rose, violet, wild strawberry, cherry, raspberry, wild blackberry and a peppery touch — pronounced floral imprint and supple tannins, silky palate. Fresh to drink young, or in denser Superiore and passito. Precious Italian curiosity.
