Giorgio Gori

Agri-food production in Bergamo is of great importance, boasting over a thousand production sites and around 8,000 employees. However, these numbers only tell part of the story of all those elements of tradition, experience and craftsmanship of our local area and the people who animate it.

In this regard, the association “The Road of Valcalepio Wine and of the Flavours of the Bergamo Area” plays a central role in promoting the vocation of wine, and, through it, local natural beauty, know-how and food and wine excellences that are obtaining ever greater national and international recognition.

I am sure that wine, which is more than capable of building a virtuous road through the conceptual space of experience-based consumption, as well as creating a vision of the territory that goes well beyond the vineyard, can increasingly be a driving force and beneficiary of the growth of other products.
