Made from Lacrima di Morro d’Alba grapes, it displays an \u003cstrong\u003eintense ruby red\u003c\/strong\u003e colour enriched by bright violet highlights. The bouquet stands out for its clear fruity notes of strawberry and black cherry, combined with delicate floral hints of violet and \u003cstrong\u003erosebuds\u003c\/strong\u003e. On the palate, it shows a medium body and a rounded entry, supported by \u003cstrong\u003esoft tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e. The finish reveals slight herbal nuances and a pleasant almond aftertaste, offering a harmonious, balanced experience consistent with its aromas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis red is born among the Marche hills in the Ascoli Piceno area, a region where Velenosi has operated since 1984. The vines grow at an altitude between 150 and 200 metres above sea level, rooting in \u003cstrong\u003emainly clay soils\u003c\/strong\u003e. The \u003cstrong\u003espurred cordon\u003c\/strong\u003e training system is designed to promote the perfect vegetative balance of the plant. These specific soil and climate conditions allow the \u003cstrong\u003eLacrima di Morro d’Alba\u003c\/strong\u003e grape to fully express its distinctive character, giving the wine an intense colour and an enveloping, smooth texture on the palate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction begins in mid-September with a \u003cstrong\u003emanual harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e, followed by careful selection of the bunches. After destemming, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The must macerates on the skins for about twenty days through \u003cstrong\u003edaily pump-overs\u003c\/strong\u003e carried out almost exclusively in closed tanks, a key technique for preserving the integrity of the aromatic bouquet. To best appreciate its floral nature, a \u003cstrong\u003eone-hour decanting\u003c\/strong\u003e before serving is recommended. Thanks to its elegant structure, it pairs ideally with cured meat platters, flavourful first courses, cheeses, light meats and vegetarian dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe story of the \u003cstrong\u003eVelenosi winery\u003c\/strong\u003e began in Ascoli Piceno in 1984, driven by the passion of Angela and Ercole. The Villa Angela \u003cstrong\u003eLacrima di Morro d’Alba DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e 2022 celebrates this legacy by fully enhancing the characteristics of the grape variety.
