Winemaker Raffaele Troisi started the venture, planting vines on his family estate in Montefredane. Raffaele focused his attention of local grape varieties, including Fiano and Coda di Volpe.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eRaffaele unfortunately died young. His wife, Elisa, kept his vision alive, and over the decades, became one of the region’s most knowledgeable vine growers.

At 2,100 feet above sea level, the hills of Montefredane are cool, arid, and intense. The soil is almost entirely composed of volcanic \"tufo,\" a naturally well-drained and mineral-rich deposit. His \u003cspan\u003evines range from 25 to 50 years old. \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe 2019 harvest was pressed full cluster and fermented using indigenous yeasts. The varietal is 100% Coda di Volpe, a white grape native to Campania. Its name means “tail of the fox,\" owing to the long shape of its clusters. The wine itself is a juxtaposition of wet stone and honeyed, resinous herbs. Like the fox itself, it walks the boundary between severity and play. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Azienda Agricola Vadiaperti","offers":[{"title":"750 mL","offer_id":41646780874915,"sku":"98002","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0499\/5527\/4915\/products\/image_19cf9be3-b70d-4ffb-86a4-fba2e0d7aeff.jpg?v=1633814600","url":"https:\/\/shop.artemisia.farm\/products\/vadiaperti-irpinia-coda-di-volpe-2019","provider":"Artemisia Farm \u0026 Vineyard","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
