    WRITTEN QUESTION E-3503/07 by Donata Gottardi (PSE) and Sepp Kusstatscher (Verts/ALE) to the Commission Subject: Quarry and cement production plant at Caprino Veronese and Rivoli Veronese This question is designed to draw the Commission's attention once again to the project to extend the quarry and build a cement factory in the municipality of Caprino Veronese in the province of Verona. The earlier question E-0752/07 explained that the area concerned borders on the site of Community interest SCI No IT3210022 and the special protection area SPA No IT3210041 and that a cement factory would have an extremely adverse effect on the environment and the lives of the local community. The present situation is that a screening study of the environmental impact on the SCI and the SPA carried out by the company that owns the quarry has been submitted to the province of Verona. The screening concluded that there is no need for an environmental impact assessment because 'it is unlikely that there would be significant effects on the Natura 2000 site 'Monte Baldo East' (SCI/SPA IT 3210041)'. Does not the Commission consider that the local authorities involved - municipality, province and region - should demand that an environmental impact assessment be carried out in accordance with Directive 85/337/EEC1 on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment (the EIA Directive, as amended by Directive 97/11/EC2 and by Directive 2003/35/EC3) with regard to this project to extend a quarry and build a cement factory?

The project takes place with the cooperation of both municipal and state museums, gathering together all the coins found in the region or belonging to historical collections. The coin finds are published in the multi-volume series of the Ritrovamenti monetali di età romana in Veneto, and the entire numismatic heritage of the museums of Veneto is catalogued in a numismatic computer database that will be available on the regional website. This paper offers some examples of the filing scheme for both the volumes and the database, illustrating research tools that can be used to find a specimen or to process data for further studies. Some results of these projects are also shown in the paper. The publication plan for coin finds and numismatic research in the town of Verona is also illustrated, in particular the forthcoming volume covering the coins found in the historical centre.

  • Cantine Lenotti Veneto
    CANTINE LENOTTI VENETO According to an enological map dated 1906, the name LENOTTI was already known in the past for the production of the classical wine Bardolino. At that time the farm sold wines exclusively in butts or demijohns. In the following years until 1968 the farm constantly increased its production, making wine from local grapes and supplying the numerous bottlers of the neighborhood. Since 1968, the farm has been bottling and selling the wines directly. From 1971 to 2004 the farm and its facilities have undergone several enlargements. The most important of them was carried out in 2004/2005 with the modernization of the vinification, ageing equipement and the bottling line. At present the farm is run by the family Lenotti. All its members are involved in the winery: Father Giancarlo is the oenologist , production manager and facilities supervisor; mother Marina handles sales for the home market; and their son Claudio is export manager. The farm CANTINE LENOTTI is situated in Bardolino, a town in the North of Italy, 25 Km from Verona, on the banks of Lake Garda. Lake Garda, in the province of Verona, is the largest lake in Italy. It is famous all over the world for its mild climate and its natural and artistic beauties that attract a great number of tourists all through the year. The beneficial effect that the lake exerts on the climate and the morphological features of the hills surrounding the banks of the lake have favored the development of a flourishing agriculture based almost exclusively on vine and olive growing.

  • Wines of Veneto
    ITALY Viva Veneto! THE DIVERSE WINE REGION IN NORTHEASTERN ITALY IS WORTH DISCOVERING story and photos by Allison Levine amous for the canals of Venice, renowned for the architecture of Palladio and fabled for star-crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet, the Veneto region, in north- Feastern Italy, is equally celebrated for the fruit of the vine. Five of the region’s seven provinces produce wine: Verona, Vicenza, Padua, Treviso and Venice. With 25 DOCs and 11 DOCGs, the Veneto is responsible for producing 20% of all Italian DOC wines. A recent trip to the region was spent exploring and learning about the provinces and their wines, ranging from familiar names such as Prosecco, Soave, Valpolicella and Amarone, to lesser-known wines such as Bardolino, Raboso, Tai Rosso, Lison and many others. There are also many international varietals grown in the region, but below we honor some of the indigenous wines in each province. Verona Some of the region’s most recognized wines come from the province of Verona. The Soave area, which includes Soave DOC and two DOCGs (Soave Recioto and Soave Superiore), holds the largest vineyard expanse in Europe, with 6,500 hectares planted. Made with at least 65% Garganega and up to 30% Trebbiano di Soave, Soave is a fragrant, fresh, medium-bodied wine.
