Prosecco, Zanin (Fvg), EU is a mother, not a stepmother

BRUSSELS – It case of Prosecco “should be a example of that Europe that listens to communities and finds the right mediation “, to whom one can look “as a mother and not as a stepmother”. Thus the president of the regional council of Friuli Venezia Giulia, Piero Mauro Zanin (Ppe), on the sidelines of the meeting of the Citizenship Commission (Civex) of the European Committee of the Regions.

“Economy, history, culture and identity, strongly linked to the production of this exceptional type of wine, are somehow put at risk today by other countries that claim its name starting from a completely different product”, said Zanin insisting: ” Europe must strike a blow to defend something that is not just a commercial product “. Zanin did theexample of Tocai, a wine for whose label his region was “unsuccessful” compared to Hungary. “We cannot limit ourselves to just defending ourselves from our lands but we must bring our voice to the European institutions”, he added.
