LACRYMA CHRISTI DEL VESUVIO ROSSO D.O.C.

Grape Variety: 100% Piedirosso.
Production Area: selected vineyards on the slopes of Vesuvius.
The name of this wine is rooted in a legend. 
According to the story, God cried when he found a corner of Heaven stolen by Lucifer and where his tears fell, there grew the grapes that make Lacryma Christi, translated as "tears of Christ”.
Lacryma Christi is undoubtedly the wine that best represents Vesuvius and  Vesuvius is one  of the most  famous thing about Campania in the world.
The intense and unusually captivating aroma of ash, which alternates with notes of fruit, and the fresh, salty and gratifying mouth feel make it totally unique.
