Product Notes

Ciù Ciù Lacrima di Morro d'Alba DOP is a red wine produced in the Marche region of Italy. This wine is made from the Lacrima grape variety, which is indigenous to the area. The grapes are grown on the hilly terrain surrounding the town of Morro d'Alba and are handpicked in September. The wine is dark red in color and has a fruity, floral aroma with a hint of spices. On the palate, it is smooth with moderate tannins and a moderate acidity. This wine is best enjoyed with red meats and game, and its unique flavor profile makes it a great accompaniment to spicy dishes.

About the Winery

Ciù Ciù

The Ciu Ciu Italian wine company was established in 1970. It is known for the authentic wines that it produces year after year. These wines are symbolic of the unique geography of the region where the Ciu Ciu farm is located.  Situated on the hills of Picen0, Offida, where the estate is located, is blessed by abundant coastal breezes that flow from the Adriatic coast nearby.

The nearby municipalities of Tronto and Tesino are known for their high wine-producing potentials. These also reflect in the quality of wine produced at Ciu Ciu in Offida. When Natalino and his wife Anna from the Bartolomei family established the Ciu Ciu wine estate in 1970, they wanted to create wines that spoke volumes about the character of the territory. They have managed to keep this tradition intact even today.

The vineyards at Offida are home to some of the rare and indigenous vines of Marche Passerina and Pecorino. Apart from these, international varietals such as Merlot, Sangiovese, Pinot, Chardonnay, Montepulciano and Barbera are also grown here.
