tie consortium, now you change Dear members,
as we have communicated by mail, the band approved by the Ministry is currently in use with the control plan has ceased its activities.
the control plan followed by Valoritalia, you must provide only the plot of bottling as happened before the clamp.
The natural path to follow, was to adopt the new ministerial collar, printed by the mint as was the case for DOCG. This path has not found positive opinions on the board of directors, which voted unanimously against the waiver for the reasons I will now explain:
1) Unlike other areas of production, the lives of a situation of Oltrepo designation of origin very complex and articulated, the possibility of release of these wines and is very wide, more than 40.
The new band includes a ministerial use very precise in terms of distribution and application suitability for each chamber, the bottom line would be a big management problem, especially for small companies, where there is no office in charge.
2) The cost of acquisition, including the adevisizzazione levitation of the same 3 times. This would be an extra weight to both producers, that the Consortium should anticipate the costs.
3) The control plan with the use of the lot filling themselves guarantee the guarantee of traceability and control of production flows.
4) Use of trade consortium.
In the future, as well as provide new production rules OP brand Consortium "Jolly" will be placed in the bottle in two modes chosen by the manufacturer:
1) by means of a clamp (the same format as the existing plan controls)
2) embossed (printed) on the head capsule; prior authorization of the consortium.
The use of the mark as I described above, will be required after final approval of production rules OP You will be duly informed and updated on time.
As written on the letter you received, the distribution of the CDT close ties approved by the Ministry of (existing). It will be possible for companies who consider it, the normal inventory. Producers
the Consortium members believe that the OP band important in clothing of the bottle, will immediately (30 days from now) to ask the band consortium, so as to give the consumer a continuity image. The band consortium will be managed (purchased and distributed) by the same CDT.
In this case, the Consortium OP wines is available to the entire denomination, members and non members for any questions and insights, so please use it, avoiding to rely on unofficial sources of information.
