Vesuvio Lacryma Christi D.O.C.
"A land between myth and history"
It is said that a piece of Paradise fell into the Gulf of Naples when Lucifer was expelled. Christ, saddened by the loss of the one who had been the best angel, wept. Where his tears fell, vines were born, whose wine was called Lacryma Christi.
Our Products
We have worked more than 90 years to offer products that combine the rigors of organic production and the warmth of Italian hospitality. We have been using organic methods since 1996, fertilizing this sandy, volcanic soil exclusively with organic products and treating the vines only with copper sulfate and sulfur; our wines do not contain sulfites. We have all the certifications to officially produce organic wines.

Looking into the future while staying rooted in our past
In 1930 Giovanni Russo founded a small family winery by the volcanic slopes of Mount Vesuvius. Back then, wine was transported to Naples in horse-drawn wagons, where small rural vintners sold their wines to larger merchants, who then supplied to shops and restaurants around the city.
Giovanni's son, Maurizio Russo, began to work in the family business at a young age as a humble field hand. After years of working for the winery, Maurizio decided to make a change and 18 years ago, he opened the winery doors for visits and tastings, invested in improving wine quality, and limited its distribution exclusively to the winery shop.
