MORMORA: CANTINE PAOLOLEO'S UNDERMARINE WINE ARRIVES AT VINITALY 2024

MORMORA: CANTINE PAOLOLEO'S UNDERMARINE WINE ARRIVES AT VINITALY 2024

The search for methods that are increasingly attentive to energy saving and less impactful also passes through Cantina Sottomarina. 'Mormora' will be presented for the first time in Verona (Vinitaly - Hall 11/B5).

Its name is “Mormora” , a species of fish from Salento. Vinitaly 2024 will be the opportunity to present this extraordinary innovation to the public. It is the culmination of a year of study and continuous discovery, thanks to monthly tastings, which monitored step by step all the evolutions of a unique wine, matured in the depths of the sea. The sea of Porto Cesareo, one of the most beautiful marine reserves in Italy, looked after the bottles for 12 months at -30 m , sheltering them from the light and the influence of the moon phases. The marine movement allowed the yeasts to be left suspended in the bottle and thus implement a constant and natural bâtonnage, necessary in refinement. The underwater cellar project for Paololeo has a particular value because it is intrinsically linked to two aspects that the company particularly cares about: sustainability and wine experimentation . Equalitas certified since 2021, it publishes its sustainability report annually in addition to its Code of Ethics. The Sottomarina winery is an experiment in complete line with the concept of energy saving, because at sea there is no need for refrigeration systems and pallet turning systems. < – Says the winemaker Nicola Leo. – The choice to refine the bottles at sea is also driven by the desire to challenge the thousand potentials of wine and demonstrate its great versatility thanks to the valorisation of two native Apulian varieties. The result is something unique and surprising.>>.

EASTER: SUSINI GROUP WORK CONSULTANTS, 'ONE FAMILY IN THREE IS IN DEBT FOR ABOUT 700 EUROS'

EASTER: SUSINI GROUP WORK CONSULTANTS, 'ONE FAMILY IN THREE IS IN DEBT FOR ABOUT 700 EUROS'

Approximately one in three families has gone into debt in order not to give up the Easter holidays. The average loan that these families requested for Easter amounts to around 700 euros, for a total of around 2.7 billion euros.

As communicated by Federalberghi, approximately 10.5 million Italians will travel across this long bridge, 92% will remain in Italy while 8% will choose a foreign location. Again according to Susini Group StP , the indebtedness of our families also depends on strong increases in prices: the costs of air flights have increased by over 13% in 2024, of hotels and other accommodation facilities by 7%, of restaurants by 4%. Easter lunch alone will cost Italians 450 million euros. As regards the loans, the Florentine study also indicates where they will come from: 65% of cases from banks, 28% from finance companies and the remaining 7% from family and friends. We also consider that the loan, if requested from financial companies and credit institutions, will also be burdened by an interest rate ranging from 7.20% up to 8.50%. «In this scenario, there are families who, while not giving up their Easter holidays, find themselves forced to reduce their stays to the bare minimum or even choose foreign destinations to try to contain costs and stay within the permitted economic budgets and others, however, who resort to loans with banks and finance companies that involve debt", comments Sandro Susini, employment consultant and founder of Susini Group StP .

Wine trends in Italy: From 25 to 29 March 2024.

The Italian wine sector is faced with a series of challenges and opportunities that shape the wine landscape in 2024.

Structural Decline in Consumption: Red wine in Italy is experiencing a phase of structural decline, reflecting a global trend towards reduced sales volumes in established markets. However, the export sector continues to hold up, with Prosecco leading the way as the best-selling wine in the supermarket, even surpassing Champagne in France. Need for Rationalization and Diversification: To face current challenges, the Italian wine sector must focus on the rationalization of denominations, with over 520 PDOs and PGIs, and on the diversification of world markets. India emerges as a growth market, with a 500% increase in wine imports in 2023. Global Challenges and Opportunities: Industry challenges include climate change, pushing producers towards sustainable farming practices, and the exploration of new growing regions. However, there are still opportunities in younger consumers, who prefer higher quality and lower quantity, and in the growing segment of low-alcohol wines. Future of Italian Wine: The future of Italian wine requires a strategic vision that includes investments, knowledge of the markets and effective promotion. Collaboration between companies in the sector is essential to promote the quality of Italian wines abroad and to face the challenges linked to changes in consumer behavior and market dynamics. In conclusion, despite the current challenges, Italian wine remains a pillar of the country's economy and a point of reference in the global wine scene, with growth opportunities deriving from the sector's ability to adapt and innovate.

BOTTEGA GOLD IS THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER PROSECCO IN THE WORLD

BOTTEGA GOLD IS THE MOST SOUGHT AFTER PROSECCO IN THE WORLD

This was revealed by an analysis of the "Wine-Searcher" portal, the most widespread wine search engine at an international level.

In fact, in the special ranking of the "most sought after bubbles in the world" drawn up by Wine-Searcher , the flagship of the Bottega SpA winery of Bibano (in the province of Treviso) surpasses everyone and gains absolute primacy . With a brilliant straw color and a soft, harmonious and elegant flavour, Bottega's Gold is a Prosecco DOC Spumante Brut which is characterized primarily by its famous entirely golden bottle. "Consumers from around the world have begun to recognize and fully appreciate the quality of Prosecco which, since last year, has already surpassed champagne in terms of preferences in the "Duty Free and Travel Retail" market as certified by Iwsr. We at Bottega SpA are responding to the ever-increasing demand for exports of Prosecco while maintaining the quality policy of the products unchanged . Our Bottega Gold Prosecco Doc has obtained countless certificates of appreciation and in such a positive moment for Prosecco we are proud of this umpteenth recognition received a few days ago from a company prestigious throughout the world of wine as a Wine-Searcher", commented Sandro Bottega, wine entrepreneur at the head of the homonymous Bottega SpA, a winery and distillery in Bibano di Godega (Treviso). And so Bottega Gold Prosecco ended up at the top of Wine-Searcher's ranking of the "most sought after in the world" . Considered by all industry experts and wine-lovers as the "search engine par excellence for wines", the strength of Wine-Searcher is undoubtedly the very rich database which is updated daily: WS currently reviews over 13 million labels in all over the world, among wine producers and distributors. A real guarantee for sommeliers, sector operators and wine lovers. And Bottega Gold Prosecco Doc certainly couldn't be missing from the Wine-Searcher rankings, which ranks first .

HOSPITALITY FAIR AT THE FUORISALONE IN MILAN WITH EVERYONE'S PROJECT DEDICATED TO ACCESSIBLE HOSPITALITY

HOSPITALITY FAIR AT THE FUORISALONE IN MILAN WITH EVERYONE'S PROJECT DEDICATED TO ACCESSIBLE HOSPITALITY

From 15 to 20 April, DI OGNUNO - the project developed and conceived by Hospitality with Village for All - V4A and Lombardini22 - will be on stage in the Sala Madrid of the nhow Milano hotel in the Tortona District: through three experiential paths of inclusive design of a reception , OF EVERYONE will allow you to see the darkness, move the space, listen to the silence, immersing the visitor in the real needs of people with disabilities to fully understand the needs and opportunities related to accessibility.

DI OGNUNO , the project dedicated to accessible hospitality by Hospitality-Il Salone dell'Accoglienza, the international event of Riva del Garda Fierecongressi, leader in Italy in the hotel and restaurant sector, arrives in Milan at the Fuorisalone 2024 . From 15 to 20 April, the project developed and conceived by Hospitality with two exceptional partners - Village for All - V4A, the first Italian accessible hospitality network, and Lombardini22 , the first company in the Italian architecture and engineering scenario with a business unit specialized in Universal Design - will in fact be on stage at the nhow Milan hotel in the Tortona District, with three experiential paths with ideas and suggestions for designing hospitality with the Universal Design matrix . The spotlight is therefore on beautiful spaces that can be enjoyed by all, as underlined by Alessandra Albarelli, General Director of Riva del Garda Fierecongressi . “With DI OGNUNO we want to talk about design for everyone intended for the hotel and non-hotel industry, offering ideas, solutions and concrete examples to support hospitality businesses and professionals on a path of change to accommodate the needs of every person. Ensuring accessible, sustainable, inclusive and high-quality experiences represents a challenge and a fundamental commitment for hospitality operators, as well as a competitive advantage in the medium-long term". In the Madrid Room of the nhow Milano hotel in Via Tortona , through three experiential paths of inclusive design of a reception, DI EVERYONE will allow you to see the darkness, move the space, listen to the silence , immersing the visitor in the real needs of people with disabilities to make the needs and opportunities related to accessibility fully understood. “I find bringing the “Everyone's Reception” from the Hospitality fair in Riva del Garda to the Milan Design Week a gesture of great generosity. It means bringing a cross-section of awareness on the needs of people with disabilities and the resulting opportunities for responses, to the attention of the public who meet in Milan for the most important moment of the year, a global reference for the design industry", he comments Cristian Catania, head architect of Universal Design at Lombardini22 . Roberto Vitali, CEO of Village for all - V4A , adds “There is no perfect project that can be replicated everywhere. Born accessible, native accessible, is perhaps the most important indication we receive from universal design. For accessibility to be an added value it must be beautiful, allowing anyone to reach, understand and use it independently and safely. This requires good planning, a team with technical skills that knows how to find innovative solutions and strategies, as well as skills to inform correctly. The ability of the Hospitality fair is to look at the needs of tomorrow. Together we show entrepreneurs where we are going, what the future should be and how to achieve it." The project will be illustrated and presented on Wednesday 17 April at 10.30am. OF EVERYONE by Hospitality-The Hospitality Exhibition: nhow Milan, Via Tortona, 35 – from 15 to 20 April, from 11am to 8pm. DI EVERYONE at the Fuorisalone is hosted by nhow Milano.

The Evolving Wine Market: Cantina Italia in Movimento

The Evolving Wine Market: Cantina Italia in Movimento

The Italian wine industry is going through a period of profound change, characterized by a series of movements and acquisitions that are redefining the landscape of wineries and vineyards in the country.

Italy, famous for its winemaking tradition, is not the only country involved in this transformation process. Countries like France and Spain, also rich in a long history linked to wine production, are experiencing a similar phenomenon. The reason for this alignment is multifactorial: from changes in consumption and exports to growing pressure on costs, wineries are facing increasingly complex challenges. One of the main consequences of this scenario is the increase in cellars and vineyards for sale. The reasons behind these sales are multiple: from the lack of a generational transition to the difficulty in maintaining an economic balance. Agricultural entrepreneurs, aware of the challenges ahead, are evaluating the opportunity to sell their businesses while the market is still favorable. In the area of acquisitions and mergers, some prominent names emerge. Companies like Tommasi, with a long history in the Italian wine scene, are entering into strategic partnerships to consolidate their position on the market. The recent agreement with the Felluga family is an example of this trend, where the objective is to expand its portfolio and strengthen its presence on a national and international scale. But it's not just big companies that are involved in this trading game. Smaller but highly valuable companies are also the subject of interest from investors and entrepreneurs in the sector. Companies such as Trabucchi d'Illasi and Begali are changing ownership, highlighting a moment of transformation for Italian wine entrepreneurship. These movements do not only concern northern Italy, but also involve other regions of the country. From the Marche to Sicily, passing through Tuscany and Piedmont, purchase and sale operations are multiplying, reflecting a market in constant ferment. However, behind every operation there is much more than a simple economic transaction. These are often family stories, centuries-old traditions and unique territories that have been passed down for generations. The future of Italian wine is being written through these operations, which represent not only a change of ownership, but also a passing of the baton between past and future. In such a dynamic context, the Italian wine sector continues to demonstrate its resilience and adaptability. Whether it is large companies forming strategic partnerships or small wineries changing ownership, Italian wine remains at the center of an ever-evolving global market.

Innovation at the service of tradition: the Mentore project by Quidquid Srls

Innovation at the service of tradition: the Mentore project by Quidquid Srls

In the global panorama of Italian agri-food, the fight against counterfeiting has become a priority, but also an opportunity to enhance and protect our food and wine products.

A new vision for Made in Italy The heart of the Mentore project is an ambitious idea: to form a network of young people (500/700) equipped with advanced technological tools who travel around the world to collect olfactory and gustatory data directly from consumers. This data is then used to select and certify Italian products, offering guarantees of authenticity and quality to international consumers. The role of the Wine Mentor At the center of the project is the concept of "Wine Mentor", a figure who goes beyond the simple sommelier, becoming a trusted advisor and a wise guide in the world of Italian wines. The Wine Mentors are responsible for identifying the best wineries and the best Italian wines, providing valuable advice and guaranteeing the quality and authenticity of the products. Technology at the service of experience The key to Mentore's success is the integration between technology and tradition. Thanks to a system based on voice assistants like Google or Alexa, consumers from all over the world can get personalized advice and order Made in Italy products with just a few clicks. This system is supported by an advanced multi-cloud structure, which ensures efficient organization and optimal data management. The electronic device for sensory analysis A key element of the Mentor project is the portable electronic device that allows analyzing a person's olfactory and gustatory characteristics precisely and reliably. This tool, using two different probes, detects the sensory preferences of each individual and transmits them to a dedicated web server, where they are used to suggest the products best suited to their preferences. Conclusions The Mentore project by Quidquid Srls represents an excellent synthesis between tradition and innovation, offering consumers from all over the world the opportunity to discover and appreciate the best Italian agri-food products. Thanks to the combination of cutting-edge technology and food and wine expertise, Mentore presents itself as a point of reference for anyone who wishes to immerse themselves in the unique experience of Made in Italy.
