Saturday June 21st 2014 in Doha, Qatar, the “Vineyard Landscape of Piedmont: Langhe-Roero and Monferrato” have become part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site.
“An outstanding example of cultural landscape, the product over time of the interaction between man and nature, shaped by the continuity of an ancient tradition of wine production aimed at excellence”: this is the UNESCO tribute to describe the 50th Italian site included on the World Heritage List, the first entirely based on the culture of wine and vine.
The new site covers five distinct wine-growing areas with outstanding landscapes and the Castle of Cavour, an emblematic name both in the development of vineyards and in Italian history. It is located in the southern part of Piedmont, between the Po River and the Ligurian Appenines, and encompasses the whole range of technical and economic processes relating to the winegrowing and wine making that has characterized the region for centuries.
This aknowledgement comes after 10 years of work by the Association for the Heritage of the Vineyard Landscape of Langhe-Roero and Monferrato and many other actors, including the Association “Strada del Barolo e grandi vini di Langa”, with the its director Daniele Manzone, who has always supported this nomination and firmly believed in it from the beginning.
The entrance into the “Unesco club”, which fills with pride all those who have been engaged in the development of these territories, is only a starting point because it is now necessary to coordinate the activities envisaged in the management plan, as the valuation and the maintenance of the assets.
