LACRIMA DI MORRO D'ALBA

Lacrima di Morro D'Alba

Among the most renowned wines in the winemaking production of the Marche region, Lacrima di Morro d’Alba boasts an ancient tradition.

This wine has been known since ancient times, with the first historical mention attributed to Frederick Barbarossa. In 1167, during the siege of Ancona, Barbarossa chose the walls of Morro d’Alba as his dwelling and refuge. The inhabitants were forced to surrender their best and most delicious items, including the famous grape juice of Morro d’Alba, of which Barbarossa became one of the major supporters.

The exact origins of the name "Lacrima" are not known: some believe it derives from the fact that the grape, when ripe, "weeps," meaning it exudes droplets of juice that resemble tears; others, on the other hand, argue that the name is linked to the elongated shape of the grape or even to a presumed relationship with Spanish Lacrima grape. The cultivation of this vine was traditionally carried out by training it alongside a living support, such as an elm or maple tree, or a wooden pole.

Lacrima di Morro d’Alba was granted Denomination of Origin Controlled (D.O.C.) status on 22-07-1985, consolidating its fame and value.
