The Consortium for the Protection of the Colli Tortonesi Wines is the body tasked to protect and represent the interests of Tortona’s wine producers and has proved to be quite suitable and effective to undertake the difficult process of revitalization, enhancement and improvement of the land, the local wine production and the spread of the Designation of Origin.
In addition, among the aims of the consortium we may include:
– the coordination of members for the compliance of the rules of the product specifications – the protection of the same designation from unfair competition and other offenses – the activities and responsibilities assigned to the Consortia through EU and national legislation in the field of wines with designation according to the Law No.164 of 10th February 1992.
A border land, a strategic crossroads of ancient peoples, the D.O.C. Colli Tortonesi wine district consists of thirty municipalities, all having one thing in common: the geological and climatic predisposition to host a high–quality viticulture.
