The Sheep BIO IGP Terre del Volturno 2019 from the winery Il Verro is a white wine produced exclusively from the Coda di Pecora grape variety.
This white wine is produced in the hilly area of the municipality of Formicola, at the foot of the Monte Maggiore mountain range in the province of Caserta. It is a native grape variety of which there are almost no traces left, and only a few local farmers preserve small quantities.
