Sorrentino Vesuvio: A Legacy of Five Generations

Nestled within the stunning Vesuvio National Park in the Campania region of southwestern Italy, Sorrentino Vesuvio Winery is a family-owned establishment that spans over 35 hectares of lush vineyards and olive groves. Operated by the fifth generation of the Sorrentino family, this winery is a testament to a rich heritage of winemaking.

A Grandmother's Passion for Winemaking

The story of Sorrentino Vesuvio begins in the 19th century with Paolo Sorrentino's grandmother, Bengina. During World War II, she reignited her love for agriculture and established the family’s winemaking tradition at their property, Moggio. She cultivated native grape varieties alongside fruits and vegetables. In the 1990s, Paolo expanded the winery's offerings by introducing wine tastings and tours, further enriching the family legacy.

Unique Varietals and Quality Wines

At Sorrentino Vesuvio, the team combines traditional methods with modern techniques to cultivate a diverse range of grape varieties. Manual harvesting in ventilated crates preserves the quality and character of the grapes. The winery is known for its rare varietals such as Caprettone, Catalanesca, and Falanghina, alongside esteemed reds like Piedirosso and Aglianico. The result is a selection of high-quality red, white, and rosé wines, as well as unique dessert and sparkling options. Experience the rich flavors and traditions of Sorrentino Vesuvio Winery, where every bottle tells a story.

A big thank you to Umberto who accompanied us throughout our stay, showing us around the vineyard while telling us the history of this beautiful place, and he let us taste several wines made from their grape varieties. A very enriching experience. I highly recommend it!

An unforgettable experience under Vesuvius🌋🐝🐝🦋🦋 Spending a day at the Cantina Sorrentino, at the foot of Vesuvius, was a journey through history, tradition and authentic flavors. Accompanied by Carmelo, an exceptional guide, we walked among the rows of vines, discovering the secrets of Vesuvian viticulture and the peculiarities of Piedirosso, a grape variety that is the symbol of this territory. Carmelo, with his passion and ability to involve, was able to create a unique atmosphere, making each explanation interesting and full of curiosities. The experience continued at the winery's restaurant, where we tasted a selection of the company's wines, including Caprettone, a white wine typical of the area, which with its freshness and minerality was able to enhance the flavors of the local cuisine. An unmissable experience for those who love good wine, authentic cuisine and the charm of a territory that is unique in the world.

We came for the wine tasting and cooking class. Mary did an outstanding job teaching us how to make gnocchi. She was very friendly and fun to work with. Umberto was also very friendly, shared his knowledge of the vineyard/Mt. Vesuvius with us on the tour. He also told us about the grapes and process of making each type of wine during the tasting. Make sure you are hungry when you come. The amount of food served was amazing. No need for breakfast before or lunch after! We would recommend this event. We did add several kinds of wines to our souvenirs!

Unforgettable Day A food and wine, landscape and cultural experience not to be missed! We discovered the true essence of Sorrentino and the secrets of the Vesuvian land, unique in terms of properties and quality, through a magnificent tour led by Carmelo, an expert, passionate and charismatic guide. It all began with a walk in the vineyard where Carmelo introduced us not only to the history of the place, but also to the cultivation techniques and the peculiarities of the soil that contribute to the production of their unique wines (including vegan wines), all accompanied by anecdotes about the Vesuvian land and small historical pearls, surrounded by an extraordinary landscape. We then sat in a room with a view of the Gulf where we enjoyed a succulent lunch accompanied by a tasting of excellent wines. An unforgettable day in a unique place, Carmelo the highlight of this experience to live!
