RARE GRAPE VARIETAL RESOURCE

Coda di Pecora is a white Italian wine grape variety that is grown in the Campania region of southern Italy, particularly in the province of Caserta. The name Coda di Pecora means "goat's tail" in the local dialect and for many years was thought to be a clonal variation of another white Campanian variety, Coda di Volpe, whose name means "foxtail". However, in 2005, DNA analysis showed that the two varieties were distinct and not closely related with Coda di Pecora potentially being related to another Campanian variety, San Pietro, that is also grown in the province of Caserta.

The variety is known to be a reliable crop that tends to produce neutral flavored wines.
