The exquisite and exotic Lacrima di Morro d’Alba from Velenosi provides a resounding example of why native Italian grapes are so delicious. Vibrant aromas that are equally floral and fruit-laden intertwine with each sniff of this wine. Ripe blackberry notes mingle with violets, candied cherries with roses and on and on. The palate is soft and easy. On the finish, a pleasant herbal and woodsy bitter note keeps the fruit in check. Yum!
