Terredora was founded in the late 90s by Paolo Mastroberardino after the family had an acrimonious split.  Paolo kept the vineyards and the other half of the family kept the name and the winery.  For this reason the Mastroberardino name can never appear on any Terredora product.  This wine is made from 100% estate fruit and Terredora are the largest vineyard owner in Campania so the selection process is exceptionally robust.  Lacryma Christi translates as ‘tears of Christ’.  Legend has it that the wine was so good he cried when he tasted it and wherever a tear fell, a vine grew.  Now, I’m not particularly fallow ground for myths and legends but the wine is bloody amazing nonetheless.
