Winery

Fattoria La Rivolta was founded more than a century and a half ago, in the Torrecuso district of the same name, in the province of Benevento, and covers about 60 hectares, all owned by the Cotroneo family, growing 100% organic wine certified by ICEA and working exclusively with native Sannio grape varieties such as falanghina, coda di volpe, fiano, greco, aglianico and piedirosso. The winery is located inside an old stone farmhouse dating back to the early 1800s, which houses the cooperage and bottling area. The production phase is all in-house, from hand-picking the grapes in the vineyards surrounding the winery to processing them. The focus has always been on low production per hectare. Since 2001 the winery has been under European Organic Certification (ICEA). The vines are all DOP and DOCG branded from native grapes of the Sannio subzone Taburno area, eliminating any production of international or non-typical vines from one of the Italian areas with the highest quality wine vocation. This is confirmed by the many awards from consumers and critics, achieving, in addition, countless prizes from guides all over the world.

Description

The curious name of the Coda di Volpe vine, a grape already mentioned by Pliny the Elder in his "Naturalis Historia" with the name "Claudia Vulpium" for the bunch that in full ripeness takes the shape of the fox's tail. This Sannio DOC is a pure Coda di Volpe, which expresses the typicality of the Campania region giving a drinkable and mineral wine. A white wine that deserves to be tried to rediscover the characteristics of an ancient historical vine, for which there are no traces outside the region.

Organoleptic characteristics: 

The wine has a luminescent golden yellow color to the eye, characterized by reflections that turn to straw yellow. The aromatic range offered on the nose is complex, featuring a bouquet of broom, chamomile flowers, abate pear, peach and with traits of herbs and citrusy pink grapefruit. On the sip it is compact, pleasantly fresh and saline.
