Luigi Giusti Lacrima di Morro d’Alba - 2005

The Lacrima grape is of ancient origin and is still cultivated only in the commune Morro d’Alba in the Marches on the East coast of Italy.

Rich, dark black/blue fruit w/ a striking lavender and rose petal nose, deep purple color, and a long finish.

MissiG pulled this out of the cellar last night... MTK, Raw, and IPO, this is similar to the Lacrima we had w/ you guys a short while back (think "lavender")...

That was not only outstanding but what I enjoyed the most was how different it was from the wines that I consider great. It was such a fresh twist an the lavender was just...... mama mia excellente.

Bij, Raw, MTK and the wifey's.. dinner+ Vino ???

Raw, you are a good guy, but horrible at organizing ...


i was born for thi smofukkka!



Bij, awesome post ... again,
your choices in Vino continue to amaze me.
You have great taste !!!!

Name the place and the time, I'll be there with bells on.

Persian cuisine!!

see what i mean.. (started as your idea... that means YOU organize)

LMAO here!

Yes, Persian food pronto - Raw, you're in charge here.

Shalizaar!!!

I'm spoiled after having the "lavender" wine! That stuff was Epicuriously Epic! (i'm gonna trademark that phrase!)

i have to admit - the "rich dark black fruit" turns me off; but the "lavendar" sounds very very interesting. i think i'll try to find a bottle and give it a shot.

what's the alcohol content?

Yup - one of those things that is hard t describe but must be tried (I am prob botching the description). Obviously "old world" in style, full bodied. Very unique.

13% alcohol per the bottle.
