Red Wine - contains sulfites Lacryma Christi takes its name from an ancient Christian legend. It is said that Lucifer, the most beautiful and shining angel of Heaven, and Christ's favorite, stole a piece of heaven to bring it to Earth. From this piece of Paradise, the Gulf of Naples, with its fertile and hospitable lands, was born. Christ, realizing the theft, reluctantly expelled the angel from Heaven, making him fall to Earth and into it, creating Hell. The Creator wept profusely for the great sorrow, and his tears soaked the dark earth of Vesuvius, giving birth to an exceptional vine and a heavenly wine. In a stunning setting, on the slopes of one of the largest volcanoes in Europe, the best native red berry varieties of Campania give life to Lacryma Christi. Fermentation: fermentation and maceration in steel tanks for about 2-3 weeks. Aging: 4-5 months in steel tanks. Organoleptic examination: ruby red color. On the nose, evident notes of freshly picked red fruit. On the palate, freshness and softness are perceived, with a pleasant finish of fresh berries and a sweet tannin. Food pairings: to be paired with simple meat dishes, such as grilled ones.
