The Ministry has authorized the planting of 30 hectares of new vineyards in the Aosta Valley. Councilor Marco Carrel and his colleague from Liguria, Alessandro Piana, had sent the Ministry a letter of request for raising the minimum threshold for replanting.
Carrel: "The increase in the area cultivated with vineyards represents an impulse to the development and recovery of our territory, which is strongly suited" until the 19th century, vine cultivation was close to 3,000 hectares.
