Description
Vigna del Vulcano 2005 Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio DOC Bianco: volcanic elegance and Campanian freshness
The Vigna del Vulcano 2005 Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio DOC Bianco from Villa Dora interprets with style and precision one of the most iconic whites of Campania. It is made from Coda di Volpe and Falanghina, grapes that express the character of the Vesuvius territory well, with a fine aromatic profile, good taste tension, and a natural inclination towards drinkability. It is a white wine that combines substance, balance, and personality, ideal for those seeking a bottle that is coherent with the territory and capable of standing out at the table.
Territory and wine style
The designation Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio DOC Bianco tells the story of a unique area, marked by volcanic soils composed of ash and lapilli. This context gives the wine a recognizable imprint, made of energy, sapidity, and finesse. The grapes come from estate vineyards trained in guyot, with manual harvesting and selection in the vineyard: elements that suggest careful attention to the raw material. The vinification in steel and the aging on fine lees help preserve freshness, aromatic cleanliness, and depth, keeping the wine in a clear and contemporary style.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents a brilliant yellow, bright and inviting. On the nose, delicate aromas of chamomile and thyme emerge, accompanied by a floral and herbal sensation that recalls its environment of origin. On the palate, the wine is harmonious and vibrant, with a smooth yet complex sip, supported by a well-defined freshness and pleasant sapidity. The balance between softness and tension makes the drinking experience elegant, while the finish leaves a clean sensation consistent with the volcanic profile of the designation.
