The vineyards sink their roots into a distinctive \u003cstrong\u003evolcanic and porous soil\u003c\/strong\u003e, a lava terrain rich in minerals that can retain moisture and gradually release it. This geological peculiarity, combined with the \u003cstrong\u003emild Mediterranean climate\u003c\/strong\u003e, encourages optimal growth and \u003cstrong\u003eregular ripening\u003c\/strong\u003e of the grapes.

Vinification begins with \u003cstrong\u003etemperature-controlled fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e in steel tanks, ideal for enhancing the clarity of the aromas. Afterwards, the wine undergoes a brief \u003cstrong\u003ematuration in steel\u003c\/strong\u003e for about five months, an essential step to avoid oxidation and maintain the floral and fruity fragrance intact. This process ensures a clean glass, able to balance the natural softness of the sip with the \u003cstrong\u003eelegant savoury streak\u003c\/strong\u003e derived from the volcanic ash.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eLacryma Christi Bianco DOC\u003c\/strong\u003e from Feudi di San Gregorio has its roots in an ancient legend: it is said that the tears of Jesus, which fell onto the Gulf of Naples, made the slopes of Vesuvius fertile.
