The "Rosso Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio DOC" from Vigna Lapillo, produced by the renowned Sorrentino winery, is a wine that originates from the fertile and sunny slopes of Vesuvius, a unique volcanic territory that imparts distinctive and intensely aromatic characteristics to its wines.
This wine is primarily made from Piedirosso and Aglianico grapes, native varieties that blend beautifully to create a rich and complex red. The winemaking process involves traditional methods followed by aging in oak barriques, which further enriches the wine's bouquet and structure.
Visually, the Rosso Lacryma Christi displays a deep ruby color, promising an intense experience on the palate. The nose offers well-defined notes of ripe red fruits, spices, and a slight mineral-volcanic aftertaste that recalls its unique origin. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied, with a well-balanced tannic texture and an aromatic persistence that makes each sip memorable.
Ideal for pairing with hearty dishes such as grilled red meats, game, and aged cheeses, this wine enhances Mediterranean cuisine and dishes with a strong personality. The recommended serving temperature is between 18 and 20°C to bring out all its organoleptic properties.
The "Rosso Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio DOC" by Vigna Lapillo is a wine that tells the story, the territory, and the passion of the Sorrentino family for viticulture, making it an excellent choice for lovers of characterful wines who seek an authentic connection with their region of origin.
