Address: Via Panoramica 15, Trecase - Trecase

On the slopes of Mount Vesuvius overlooking the Mediterranean and the island of Capri, the Cantina del Vesuvio family-run winery produces a limited number of bottles of historic Lacryma Christi, an heirloom wine that has been made in this area since Roman times. Many of the area's wineries date back millennia, and the winery's labels can only be purchased directly at the winery or through the official website.

To discover and sample this little-known Campanian wine, the winery offers guided tastings and winery tours, with lunch featuring local dishes like spaghetti tossed with heirloom Piennolo tomatoes. Located between the archeaological park of Pompeii and Vesuvius' crater, the winery is perfectly located for a lunch stop between these two famous nearby sights!

Lunch stop

Apr 19, 2025

Stopped off for lunch on an organised trip for Pompeii/Herculean. What a beautiful place! Scenery, food,wine and attentive staff. Truly recommend this. Didn't have time to visit vines but worth our time there. Unfortunately my camera didn't do it justice.

Fabulous!

Had an incredible experience at this winery in the shadow of Vesuvius (although it was super misty so if you can’t see it, take their word for it). We enjoyed such a warm welcome from Carmine and then an amazing tour from the hilarious Elga (or Wine Chappell Roan). We did a tasting over lunch and everything was delicious. The whole team in the restaurant took such good care of us, and it was lovely of Elga to pop back in and check on us too. Can’t recommend this place highly enough.

Awesome tour even for the non drinker

This was one of our favorite tours of the whole trip! I do not drink alcohol and I still had a fabulous time. The lunch was one of the best meals ever!

A great winery experience

This was my second visit to this winery. My last was in 2012, and it was just as good as I remember. I went with a few friends, some that drink and some that don't. I loved the option for those not doing the tasting to enjoy a great meal. It was honestly one of our favorite in Italy. We also loved that we could get free shipping with a 200 euro purchase, which we did easily. I can't wait to go back!
