Wine and 'Made in Italy' are
fundamental parts of Italian identity, Premier Giorgia Meloni
said at the annual Vinitaly wine fair in Verona Monday.
"There is no Italian identity without Made in Italy, there is no
Italian culture without Made in Italy and it is no accident that
Made in Italy is a fundamental part of our identity," she told
exhibitors at the major event.
"Just think of wine at all latitudes, I thank you for the work
you have done inside Vinitaly, (wine) has been sung in poetry,
literature, painted in pictures, sculpted into out sculptures,
it is a fundamental part of our identity," she stressed.
Exports of Italian wine are "slowing a bit but holding up well"
the Italian wine federation Federvini said at the fair.
