The Provenance Story
From Cantina del Vesuvio to your table
Legend tells that Christ wept over the beauty of the Bay of Naples, and where his tears fell upon Mount Vesuvius, the vines sprang forth.
Sourced directly by Luigi & Jo Di Caprio on their annual harvest visits to Campania. Every bottle is tasted from barrel to bottle, temperature-controlled in transit, and stored in our Surrey bonded cellar before reaching your door.
