Vigna del Vulcano 2006 Lacryma Christi of Vesuvius DOC White Villadora

Vigna del Vulcano 2006 Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio DOC Bianco Villa Dora

Vigna del Vulcano is a Campanian white wine with an authentic character, an expression of the Villa Dora winery and the Vesuvius territory. Born from Coda di Volpe and Falanghina grapes, it combines territorial personality, freshness, and an elegant aromatic profile, enhanced by careful vinification and a stay in steel that preserves its finesse and identity.

Territory and wine style

The designation Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio DOC Bianco tells the story of one of the most recognizable territories in Campania, where the volcanic soil contributes to giving tension, sapidity, and a distinct mineral imprint. In this context, Vigna del Vulcano interprets the style of Vesuvius white wine with balance and precision, thanks also to company vineyards cultivated with limited yields and manual harvesting. The choice to work in steel and to keep the wine on fine lees for several months goes in the direction of a clear, fresh, and harmonious style.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents a bright yellow color. The bouquet is delicate yet recognizable, with hints of chamomile and thyme that anticipate an elegant and defined sip. On the palate, it shows balance between softness and momentum, with a vibrant sensation that accompanies the sip and supports its persistence. The aromatic imprint remains composed, while the freshness adds liveliness and makes the wine smooth, pleasant, and well-balanced. The finish is clean, with a closure consistent with the volcanic soul of the territory.
