This label is dedicated once again to the marriage between art and wine and in particular the relationship that is created in the first nine hundred of the movement of futurism and the transposition of certain works of art of this current art on the labels of wine which until then had been fairly anonymous.
This article is the result of our search for a beloved member of Giancarlo Santagostino Abbiategrasso.
Here we present the Green Label "Caldaro" which is a label of Claudio Cavazzana Cantine di Trento.
The company is no longer in business and has been consolidated since the second world war in another among the most important initiative.
The label is a copy of a set that includes (at least) Terlano (same colors) Marzemino and sweet Lambrusco (predominantly red) and Santa Maddalena Red Castelbarco (predominantly orange) and Negrara Valpolicella (blue / red) and Albana Passito (yellow and blue) to all’aceto (pink). Some specimens were diagonally soprastampati: "Red Castellar" on Negrara and Valpolicella, "White Castelmadruzzo" Passito on and on Albania.
All these labels have the same design and vary only the distribution of colors in different fields.
And one can certainly point out the novelty of this label and also the news that certainly stand out on a bottle today.
Were commissioned in the years 30 to Fortunato Depero that has put his signature in the small FD which is located in the corners of the label.
Fortunato Depero was born at the end dell’800 a fund, in Trentino, subject of the Habsburgs. He studied art and also practiced outside the home.
Attended - it was leading with Jacks and Balla - the cultural movement known as Futurism and in 1914 in Rome signed the Manifesto of Futurist Reconstruction of the Universe, which is distinct from the other posters Futurists in seeking a global dimension in the core the game is seen as liberating activities.
Many of his works, not only paintings, are collected in Casa Depero Museum in Rovereto (now the subject of the work of new production). Depero of works have been presented in recent years in several exhibitions (including Milan and Genoa) devoted to Futurism, a movement somewhat ‘forgotten in recent decades because of the sympathy that the Futurists dedicated to the emerging regime (1922).
Depero was brilliant artist and for him there tapestries, marquetry in cloth, furniture, billboards (Campari, San Pellegrino, Verzocchi, Unica) toys, also worked for the theater and, as you can see, even for the Cantine di Trento Claudio Cavezzani.

Results rather than positive in the direction of a product specification and certification of Grappa Veneta.

This emerges from the first steps of the research conducted under the project "Valgrave" (Protection and Enhancement of Grappa Veneta), started in late 2007 and which sees the collaboration between Institute Grappa Veneta, Veneto Agricoltura, Italian Wine Union and National Association of Tasters Grappa.

The research involving 10 distilleries, representative of the entire region, which were collected 36 samples of raw grappa and delivered to the laboratories of the Italian Wine of Verona, for isotopic analysis and gas chromatography.

The analysis revealed characters typical for each distillery for the content of the alcohol and the compounds detected by gas chromatography, while the combination of features (identified by isotopic analysis), probably indicates a composition different from that of neighboring regions, Trentino-Alto Adige and Friuli-Venezia Giulia.

‘It is a very important project for producers veneti - Male says Alessandro, president of Grappa Veneta - Identify the chemical and organoleptic characteristics of grappa, create a panel, a committee of tasters can assess the main sensory characteristics are significant steps in the direction of the certifying Grappa Veneta with the objective to protect and enhance the regional product with benefits for consumers and producers the image of the region. "

Valgrave The project also provides for the formation of a panel of tasters to define the main characteristics of sensory Grappa Veneta, that during this first step of research, was attended by representatives of the National Tasters Grappa.

"For the first time also - concludes Male - associated producers are all united in a project that seeks the protection and enhancement of our product, with the crucial support of the Regione Veneto."

The evening will begin around 20:30, and the package for 8 wines with Italian specialties is 30 € all included.
Some notes on the regions visited:
Puglia: unknown region (the heel) is a major region in terms of quantity of wine produced, making it a key pillar of the economy of the area. Even if the quantity is not always the quality, the bulk of production is intended for development of table wine, more and more producers are working to offer quality wines, particularly around indigenous varietals 2 red, primitivo and Negroamaro.
Sicily: the Sicilian wine quality, less unknown, having long been geared towards producing a wine meant to be turned into an "international taste" (with high concentrations in particular), now appears to be heading towards the development of wine most representative of the soil of the island. The Nero d’Avola, wine from the same grape variety, is perhaps the best known of all, except for the wine that is mutated marsala.
Sardinia: this region is probably not at the forefront of the revival of Italian wine, initiated by Tuscany in 70 years, together more or less delayed by almost all other Italian regions. Sardinia a little slow to follow this trail - which is more lucrative than producing large returns. But, as often is the will of the producer who will create a good wine, and the Sardinian region have enough potential, it is not impossible to find excellent wines on the island, particularly in RFSO Cannonau di Sardegna (the grenache Cannonau being French).
