The production area of Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio DOP covers the entire zone, including both the newer cone, “Vesuvius,” and the older part, “Mount Somma,” in the heart of the Vesuvius National Park.
The blend of Piedirosso, Aglianico, and Olivella grapes is the symbol of the Vesuvian territory. The finesse of Piedirosso, the elegant tannins of Olivella, and the strength of Aglianico give life to Lacrimanero, a Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio DOP Rosso—a complex wine with notes of small berries and licorice.
