Lucchetti Winery, a family-run gem in Le Marche, Italy, has become synonymous with exceptional Lacrima di Morro d'Alba wines. Under the guidance of Mario Lucchetti and his son Paolo, this estate has flourished since the 1980s, expanding to 14 hectares of vineyards. Their commitment to indigenous varietals, particularly Lacrima, showcases the unique terroir of Ancona province. The potassium-rich, iron-poor soils contribute to the creation of powerful, aromatic wines that capture the essence of the region.
The Lacrima di Morra d'Alba Superiore 'Guardengo' is a testament to Lucchetti's craftsmanship. This 100% Lacrima wine boasts an intense bouquet of violets and wild strawberries, characteristic of this ancient grape variety. On the palate, it reveals bold, ripe purple fruits intertwined with elegant floral notes and fine tannins. The wine's balanced earthiness and 14% alcohol content make it a perfect companion for hearty pasta dishes, aged cheeses, and grilled meats. With its 12-month aging in cement tanks, this Superiore offers a refined expression of Marche's winemaking tradition.
