WINE Our namesake, Coda di Volpe, comes from a grape only found in Southern Italy. Pulled from near extinction, it is one that expresses the true landscape & vineyards of Campania. Meaning “Tail of the Fox,” Coda di Volpe has influenced our entire wine program. Some of the most dynamic wines in the world are being made & bottled from the six traditional regions of Southern Italy; Campania, Basilicata, Puglia, Calabria, Sicily & Sardinia. Just as our namesake shows us a glimpse of the past, so do the other ancient varietals we have gathered on our list. By supporting small producers & native species, we strive to represent the vibrancy of Southern Italy’s present & future. We look forward to sharing our passion for those regions in every glass we pour. indicates native varietal once on the brink of extinction aperitvio wines by the glass Produced in the method of Fino Sherry & aged in chestnut barrels for a minimum of 10 years, Vernaccia di Oristano are complex & extremely rare.
