The soils are mixed, with a predominance of clay. Vines are trained on a spur-pruned cordon system, planted at a density of approximately 3,450 vines per hectare with a spacing of 2.60 × 1.10 metres. Inter-rows are either worked or grassed depending on the season, and the vineyard has an average vine age of around 25 years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003eThe grapes were harvested in mid September, in small crates. Vinification comprised 80% traditional maceration lasting 10 days and 20% carbonic maceration.

The co-op owns 24 hectares of organically farmed vineyards, inland from the Castelli di Jesi DOC, where the climate is more continental. Here, the combination of warm days and cool nights extend the growing season, allowing the grape's aromatics to develop. As a result, harvest occurs as late as the second half of October. These vines are the source of Cantine Belisario’s organic ‘Vigneti B’ Verdicchio.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"London End Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64609563902329,"sku":"202124324","price":13.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/5405\/2509\/files\/CantineBelisarioLacrimadiMorrod_Alba.png?v=1789566956","url":"https:\/\/www.londonendwines.com\/products\/cantine-belisario-lacrima-di-morro-dalba-2024","provider":"London End Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
