Lacrima di Morro d'Alba VILLA ANGELA DOC VELENOSI

Lacrima di Morro d'Alba DOC “Villa Angela” from Cantina Velenosi is a red wine from the Marche region that originates in the hills around the municipality of Morro d'Alba, in the province of Ancona, an area historically dedicated to the cultivation of the Lacrima grape variety. The vineyards are raised on medium-textured hilly terrain, well exposed and influenced by the proximity of the Adriatic Sea, conditions that favor optimal grape ripening and high aromatic intensity. The collection is done manually with careful selection of the bunches. After destemming, fermentation takes place in stainless steel at a controlled temperature with maceration on the skins, thus extracting color, aromas and structure while maintaining elegance and varietal freshness. The refinement continues mainly in steel to preserve the aromatic fragrance typical of the grape variety.
