91 Pts Ian Dagata - Vinous Media |
"Deep purple-ruby. Archetypal floral nose of Lacrima shows ripe blackberry and sweet spicy black cherry aromas dominated by lavender and iris. Clean and fresh in the mouth, with plum and blueberry flavors given clarity and cut by harmonious acidity. The long finish repeats the floral notes. This outstanding aromatic red wine will win many new fans. Think of it as a delicate, dry black muscat." (04/13) |
90 Pts Antonio Galloni - Vinous |
"Luccheti's entry-level 2011 Lacrima di Morro d'Alba is fabulous. It has great balance of aromatics, fruit and structure, especially at this level. Dark cherries, herbs, black pepper and a host of other varietal notes emerge from the glass, all with fabulous intensity. The 2011 is a great introduction to this eccentric, beguiling red from the Marche." (02/13) |
Description:
"Deep violet in color, the wine explodes out of the glass with an extremely intense and heady bouquet of exotic Eastern flowers and wild strawberries and pomegranate. Once past the intriguing nose, the palate features wild berry compote, hints of roses, violets and geranium, a note of pink peppercorn and finishes very fresh with limited tannins. An utterly unique experience featuring outstanding balance and concentration." - Importer
Producer:
"Mario Lucchetti began in the 1980s with the first acres of Lacrima di Morro d'Alba, one of the local indigenous varietals in this rural area of Le Marche in the province of Ancona, not far from the town of Jesi. His passion focused on restoring the importance of the area's native varietals. With new plantings in 2004, the estate's total vineyard size expanded to 14 hectares and continues to grow today. In recent years, Mario's son Paolo completed his degree in enology and is now working side by side with his father to carry the family tradition into the next decades. The focal point of the winery is their basic Lacrima bottling, but they also produce the "Guardengo" single-vineyard bottling as well as an Amarone style Lacrima made from partially dried grapes. Annual production remains well under 10,000 cases per year."
"Lacrima di Morro d'Alba is an indigenous dark purple grape that exemplifies the Marche wine region. Historic records document that the grape has been harvested in the narrow region that today comprises the heart of Morro d'Alba since medieval times. On average, the grapes are harvested in the first ten days of September and vinified using the traditional method to make a very pleasant, ready-to-drink wine with the unmistakable bouquet of violets and wild strawberries. Fruity yet exotic and concentrated, this wine is delightful paired with traditional salami and Italian coldcuts, roasted meats and grilled sausages and is perfect for spring and fall, when the weather calls for less structured wines." - Importer
