lemmycaution Posted March 25, 2011 Share Posted March 25, 2011 I've never even heard of the grape Lacrima Di Morro before, but it was a really interesting wine. Just thought if anyone wanted to try something totally different, this would be the wine. I've never had a red wine that tasted like orange peel and smelled so strongly of flowers before. Very inky and dark. Not a wine for everyone, but definitely unique... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarks Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I had some a few years back on a trip to Italy. I think it is a fairly rare grape of Italy and if recall correctly, the wine we had was a blend with Multepulciano. It was very, very floral. An interesting change of pace.

Colt45 Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 I've not had it - I've read about it, but forgotten I had. I grabbed my trusty copy of Vino Italiano and looked it up, where it was generally compared to beaujolais - as you guys mentioned, fruity / floral. I'll keep my eyes open, though Le Marche is not usually represented at my locals, and when there are wines from the region, usually rosso conero or rosso piceno. There are a couple of shops that specialize in Italian wines I like to visit when I'm in the vicinity, so I'll check next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
