The Coda di Volpe vine is named for the shape of the bunch, medium to large pyramidal, cylindrical ends with a curvature reminiscent of the animal's tail, the resemblance was already described by Pliny the Elder who named this grape Cauda Vulpium. It is a grape that grows quite easily and adapts to different types of climates and soils, but it is not particularly vigorous or productive. It is grown mainly in the provinces of Benevento, Avellino, Naples and Caserta, but sporadic plants are found in Puglia and Sicily, on the slopes of Mount Etna.
