Indulge in the exquisite Foxtail Passito, a luscious dessert wine crafted from 100% Coda di Volpe grapes, proudly presented by Cantina Sanpaolo under the expert guidance of Claudio Quarta Vignaiolo. This elegant passito is a true enological treasure from Campania, showcasing the distinctive characteristics of the region’s indigenous grape variety.

Foxtail Passito mesmerizes with its naturally obtained golden yellow hue, achieved through the careful maturation of the grapes. The wine's rich sweetness is perfectly balanced by a refreshing acidity. On the nose, it unfurls aromas of dried figs, dehydrated apricot, and chestnut honey, while the palate is greeted with robust glyceric notes harmonized with acidic freshness, culminating in an almond and hazelnut finish. This wine offers a notable level of savoriness, making it an exceptional choice for sipping alongside a variety of desserts or as a splendid end to a meal.
