Morro d’Alba lies amid the rolling hills of Le Marche, 10 km from the Adriatic Coast in the province of Ancona. It is here that Stefano Mancinelli has planted his vineyards and olive groves. His farm, of over sixty hectares, has a quarter of them devoted to growing specialist vines with which he produces his D.O.C. - guarantee of origin - wines: Lacrima di Morro d’Alba D.O.C. and Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi D.O.C. Classico - both of which are typical of the region.
The wine is composed of Verdicchio 100% native clone of Castelli di Jesi. The white grapes were softly pressed followed by an immediate filtering of the must, followed by fermentation at strict controlled temperature.
