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.

Writing this tipsy, giggly and overall blessed to have experience such a beautiful lunch at Cantina Del Vesuvio. Me and my boyfriend booked the supreme tasting & didn’t have an empty glass from the moment we left the car. Carmin & everyone were the most friendly, welcoming hosts. The food was amazing, make sure you have the bread and olive oil with red wine vinegar, to die for! We highly recommend visiting this Winery on your trip to Naples. Faultless experience! Thankyou so much

great experience outside of Naples. A very hot week in Italy and touring this winery made the day so memorable. Transportation from and to our hotel provided. We had a tour of the winery and a set menu with wine pairing. Suggestion for the staff to share the pairing of the wine with the first course. There were three wines to have with the cheese, cured meats and pickled vegetables. We were told after we started digging in and the third wine with the first dish was being poured. Love the family pride with this place. Got to meet the owner, and owner's father this day. Brought back some memories - the chicken water pitcher is a highlight and conversation starter.

Beautiful lunch with wine pairing

We came for wine tasting with lunch and it was worth it. Beautiful setting on the foot of Mt. Vesuvius. The wine cost around £30 per bottle if you want to buy some which we find quite expensive in Italy.

This was one of the best days we had of our 2 week trip to Italy. As part of going to Positano from the train station we chose to stop here. It was the perfect way to start our voyage down there. Do yourself a favor and upgrade to lunch at the owners house. Ester was so nice. We had a great time chatting with her. They brought us out an amazing tray of meats, cheese, breads tomatoes among other things. Her homemade balsamic vinegars and olive are to die for. We then moved to a different table where she made us first course ravioli second course eggplant and meatballs. She even brought us more meatballs out. Then an amazing desert to finish. This all included wine pairs and she was not shy about giving us extra. We loved everything so much we ordered some wine and balsamic to be shipped back home. Great experience. Thank you Ester you made our day.
