Look beyond Italy’s most famous grapes and you’ll find a plethora of unique varieties that produce deliciously fresh white wines. Vesuvium, named after Mount Vesuvius, is crafted with Greco di Tufo, one of Italy’s most characterful yet underrated white grapes.
This crisp, peach-scented wine comes from a small, family-owned winery in the Irpinian hills of Campania near Naples. Here, the region’s climate is ideal for cultivating vines. At 500m altitude, with cooling sea breezes locking in freshness, while nutrient-starved volcanic soils keeping yields low, but ensuring flavours are complex.
Appealing ripe pear and citrus aromas segue into apple, pear and stone fruit flavours. Pair with Mediterranean vegetables, seafood and light pasta dishes.
