CUSTOZA APPEARS IN PARLIAMENT

Custoza Doc is the only wine partner of FIPE-Confcommercio (Italian Federation of Public Businesses) on the occasion of the presentation in the Chamber of the 2nd edition of the Italian Catering Day , scheduled for May 18th.

Custoza, a white wine produced on the morainic hills between Verona and Lake Garda, has chosen to support this important event because it is strongly convinced that catering is the best ambassador of the denomination . With this day thousands of restaurants will know its characteristics. In the Sala della Regina in Montecitorio, after the speeches of the President of the Chamber, the Hon. Lorenzo Fontana, and the ministers Francesco Lollobrigida and Adolfo Urso , the president of the Consortium for the Protection of Custoza Doc Wine Roberta Bricolo spoke.

<< We are proud to support this important event because we share many values with catering, from the spirit of service to the culture of hospitality, from respect for identity to the protection of territories. Together we can also face the attacks that come from the outside, first of all, in our case, the debate on the alcoholic component and on the health aspects of wine, which debase and deny the value that wine and food have always had as of Italian history and culture. - He claims. - In the case of Custoza, then, this territory also has a historical significance and contributed to the creation of Italy, just think of the two battles that took place here during the Wars of Independence. >>

The Custoza denomination also recognizes the economic importance of the catering sector , essential for the agri-food chain and agricultural products. They are also the ambassadors of the culture of conscious drinking and Custoza is at their side. A contemporary and versatile wine, it is capable of accompanying the most varied gastronomic preparations.

<< Our presence in Parliament alongside FIPE-Confcommercio today is part of a broader project in favor of the category. – Continued Roberta Bricolo. – Over the last few years we have started a program of free training courses for dining room staff, starting from hotel schools, to increase professionalism and enhance the historic Italian names. The producers of Custoza wine stand alongside the catering industry and today express their best wishes for success in the realization of the projects presented here, certain that together, as Mario Soldati said, Good Food and Good Drinking will give even more flavor to existence. We wish FIPE-Confcommercio great success for the Italian Catering Day and we hope to continue this journey together.>>
