Cork Notes: 2009 Orgiolo Lacrima di Morro d’Alba Superiore
Once popular in the 11th century, this Italian varietal is flourishing once again.
The Marotti Campi familyEverything that’s old is new again. As my wife and I celebrate our 26-plus years together this month with a soon-to-be-empty house, we have the opportunity to bring back the things that first brought us together and improve upon them.
Now revived and flourishing, the 2009 Marotti Campi Orgiolo Lacrima di Morro d’Alba Superiore ($23.99) is a fascinating wine. Fruity and floral, velvety yet spicy, it’s unlike any wine I’ve tried in recent years.
