Mastroberardino Description
Mastroberardino Lacryma Christi Del Vesuvio Rosso is a ruby red wine with an intense aroma of cherries, plums, raspberries, and black pepper. This wine boasts refined, light tannins and bright acidity, giving it a refreshing and fruity character that is sure to lift your spirits.
Crafted using 100% Piedirosso grapes by the renowned winemaker Massimo Di Renzo, this wine is an excellent representation of the Vesuvio DOC terroir. The vineyards, situated below the majestic Mount Vesuvius, are nourished by the mineral-rich volcanic ash and lapilli, resulting in loose soils that are rich in minerals and well-draining.
Pair this exquisite wine with salumi, tomato and meat-based sauces, or pizza Margherita for an unforgettable culinary experience.
With a history that dates back to ancient Roman times, Lacryma Christi is a legendary wine that has been popularized by monks in the Middle Ages. The Mastroberardino family, known for their contribution to Italian viticulture, have played a significant role in the revival and elevation of winemaking in Southern Italy.
Hand harvested in October, the grapes are fermented in stainless steel at controlled temperatures and refined in the bottle for one month prior to release. With an alcohol content of 12.5%, Mastroberardino Lacryma Christi Del Vesuvio Rosso is a perfect choice for any occasion.
