The purpose of the interview is to tell the story of the Sorrentino Vesuvio company, located in the heart of the Vesuvius National Park for four generations. A story of family, passion and deep connection with the territory, which is handed down with respect for tradition but with an eye on innovation. From the volcanic soils, rich in minerals, unique wines are born, among which the famous Lacryma Christi stands out. Alongside this, the company offers a wide range of award-winning labels that accurately tell the story of Vesuvius.
