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.
