The document discusses a campaign financed by the European Union to promote high quality agricultural products from Europe. It focuses on a seminar called "Old Vines of Italy" presented by Professor Attilio Scienza and Lynne Sherriff MW. The seminar discusses the importance of preserving old vine plants in Italy, which represent a genetic reservoir and can provide resilience against climate change. Wines made from grapes of "Patriarch vines" over 100 years old show the highest quality and capture the essence and terroir of the regions they are grown in.

I Patriarchi
From ancient Greek ΠΑΤΗΡ ἄΡΧΩΝ PATÈR ÀRCHON, “Father-Chief”
Plants that reach a greater age and size are usually isolated, grown in
courtyards, cloisters or near houses to form pergolas and therefore
enjoy special care and a particular diet.
So why did these plants survive while the others died? They are a bit like human beings.
The over-90s are generally people who have had to pass many physical trials, they have adopted a
philosophy in life that relieves stress, they have avoided excesses of all kinds, and have a stable
genetic heritage.

The possibility to use these plants for their genetic memory to
transfer their epigenetic code.
These plants have faced stressful conditions, especially
cliamactic ones, ( long periods of cold weather/hot weather).
They expressed genes that allowed them to survive.

of the vineyard: steep slopes on which it was necessary to
tie and transport the crop by means of ropes (from the
German "verseilen" = tie).

Vecchie viti
We chose the name Vecchie Viti
(Old Vines) because this wine
comes from individual vines
scattered throughout the territory
of Valdobbiadene and not from a
single vineyard. Of course it is
difficult to determine with
absolute precision the age of
these plants, but we can say that
they are between 80 and 100
years old.

Horatio Nelson
1758-1805
The Gurrida winery dates back to the early 1800s,
when Admiral Horatio Nelson was awarded the
title of Duke of Bronte by the King of Naples. He
decided to plant vineyards over large areas in
order to compete with Madeira and Porto wines.
He was said to be the French oenologist who
planted the Grenache. The arrival of phylloxera in
the mid-nineteenth century, decimated all
European vineyards in a few years, including those
of the Ducea di Bronte with the exception of those
planted on the bottom of the seasonal lake
Gurrida.
