About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The vineyards are situated in the sunny hills of the province of Avellino, on volcanic soils whose distinctive composition derives from the eruption of Mount Vesuvius 2,000 years ago. The project works closely with small producers in Campania.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested in early October and vinified at a controlled temperature. Marco Flacco created the Lava range using minimal-intervention methods intended to preserve the wines’ natural character and expression of terroir.

Tasting profile

Full-flavoured, with excellent structure and elegance.
