A story in the glass
Feudi di San Gregorio’s Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio Bianco connects Coda di Volpe and Falanghina with Mount Vesuvius. The name, “Christ’s tears”, recalls a local legend rather than a winemaking technique.

In the story related by the producer, vines at the volcano’s foot sprang from the tears of Jesus. This belongs to the cultural imagination of the place. The wine’s verifiable identity rests on its Vesuvio appellation and two white grapes associated with Campania.
Feudi di San Gregorio ferments and matures this label in stainless steel, keeping fruit and freshness central rather than heavily toasted oak. It offers a way to discover southern Italian whites through a specific volcanic landscape, not merely through their latitude.
