Cantina del Vesuvio is a winery specialized in Lacryma Christi, a wine produced exclusively on the slopes of Mount Vesuvius and almost unknown outside of the region of Campania, despite its long history. This wine was made and beloved by ancient Romans, and vineyards have covered these mountain slopes since the 5th century BC. The winery has kept this ancient tradition alive by growing heirloom Caprettone and Piedirosso grapes to make their limited number of bottles of organic wine, sold only through the winery.

Cantina del Vesuvio offers guided tastings and cooking classes, a unique way to discover the history and culture of the Vesuvius National Park while enjoying the quiet of the countryside and extraordinary views over the Bay of Naples.

Lunch stop

Stopped off for lunch on an organised trip for Pompeii/Herculean. What a beautiful place! Scenery, food,wine and attentive staff. Truly recommend this. Didn't have time to visit vines but worth our time there. Unfortunately my camera didn't do it justice.

Had an incredible experience at this winery in the shadow of Vesuvius (although it was super misty so if you can’t see it, take their word for it). We enjoyed such a warm welcome from Carmine and then an amazing tour from the hilarious Elga (or Wine Chappell Roan). We did a tasting over lunch and everything was delicious. The whole team in the restaurant took such good care of us, and it was lovely of Elga to pop back in and check on us too. Can’t recommend this place highly enough.

This was one of our favorite tours of the whole trip! I do not drink alcohol and I still had a fabulous time. The lunch was one of the best meals ever!

This was my second visit to this winery. My last was in 2012, and it was just as good as I remember. I went with a few friends, some that drink and some that don't. I loved the option for those not doing the tasting to enjoy a great meal. It was honestly one of our favorite in Italy. We also loved that we could get free shipping with a 200 euro purchase, which we did easily. I can't wait to go back!
