From the vineyards of Rivittavoli on Monte Somma, in the heart of the Vesuvius National Park at 500 m a.s.l., comes a Caprettone that tells the most sunny and Mediterranean side of the territory. On the nose, it releases bright citrus and ripe apricot, then opens up to wild white flowers and a hint of wet stone that marks its volcanic origin. The sip is rich yet lively, smooth, with a freshness that extends the pace and a precise saline trail, for a clean and savory finish that invites a second glass. Perfect to uncork when the table smells of the sea: serve at 10–12 °C in a wide glass to enjoy its elegant texture and clear Vesuvian minerality.

Recommended pairings

Perfect with cod and stockfish, fish in general. Also excellent with fried paranza, raw and marinated dishes, mozzarella and fresh cheeses, white pizza. Pairing with Nero Vesuviano Preserves (Piennòlo, friarielli, creams) enhances the mineral and fresh sip.

Why in Nero Vesuviano:

Chosen because it tells the story of Vesuvius with clarity and finesse: Rivittavoli, Monte Somma, 500 m a.s.l., volcanic soils and steel vinification for a clean and mineral profile. On the nose, citrus, apricot and white flowers; on the palate, it is rich yet slender, with freshness and saline trail that reflect our manifesto “Mineral. Elegant. Gourmet.”
