Note: The denomination is born from a legend: Lucifero, chased by the Heaven, brought with him an edge of it, deposed it in the Naple’s Gulf. God, aching to have lost a so beautiful part of the Heaven, started to cry and, there where his tears fell, the grapevines rose for miracle. The wine obtained from these grapevines was called “LACRYMA CHRISTI”. Two varieties used and the fusion with the vesuvian area originate a product that expresses own potential characteristics in the better way.
