Caprettone

White

  • A wine with a big personality, reminiscent of a goat’s beard, Caprettone boasts a wealth of polyphenols, albeit with a susceptibility to oxidation.
  • Evoking the opulence of Greco Bianco, it unfolds on the palate with a rich, rounded character, offering a creamy texture that surpasses the depths of Fiano and Falaghina.
  • While sharing some characteristics with Coda di Volpe, Caprettone asserts its distinct identity, standing apart in the pantheon of Italian varietals.

With a modest tartaric acid content, Caprettone may surprise with its transformation into a sparkling wine reminiscent of a subtler Prosecco, adorned with delicate fruit notes. Among its distinguished offerings, the Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio Bianco DOC stands as a testament to its excellence, showcasing its purest essence. Under the IGT classification, Caprettone unveils a symphony of flavors, from zesty lemon to crisp mineral tones, complemented by whispers of white flowers and the subtle allure of unripe apricot.
