Unusual grapesThe Lacryma Christi Bianco by Feudi di San Gregorio is a white wine from Campania, coming from the Vesuvius wine area, made from Coda di Volpe and Falanghina grapes.

It is born from a blend of two indigenous white grape varieties historically present on the slopes of the volcano: Coda di Volpe and Falanghina. It is a terroir wine that combines fragrant fruity notes with a sapid and mineral vein of clear volcanic connotation. Aged only in steel, it is a white that is appreciated for the harmony of the sip, balanced and smooth, making it immediately enjoyable and pleasant.
