BOSCO DE MEDICI LACRYMA BIANCO LAVAFLAVA 2021

Style: Savoury & Detailed

At 1281 metres, Mt Vesuvius dominates the Bay of Naples. It is the only active volcano in mainland Europe, dormant since 1944 and famous for its catastrophic eruption in 79 AD that buried the Roman cities of Pompei and Herculaneum. The fertile volcanic soil and moderate climate have made Vesuvius home to a rich history of viticulture. Bosco di Medici takes its name from the Florentine Medici after a branch of the family moved to Pompei in 1567 and became influential in viticulture. After selling their grapes for two decades the Palomba and Monaco families launched their own wines in 2014.
