La natura, with its perfection, continues to surprise me. A single green grape, Once ripe,, indicates the right time for the grape harvest. A special feature, though not singular, but very rare.
We are in Ravenna. The berry to which I refer is that of bunch of grapes Longanesi, an ancient indigenous vine. Da quest'uva, registered in the Register of Varieties by 2000, si produce il wine Bursôn.
Friday 6 June to Restaurant Daniel Milan, took an evening sponsored by the The Consortium Bagnacavallo to spread awareness of this wine typical of Emilia Romagna.
Present Sergio Boys, technical manager of the consortium, and some manufacturers that are part of. During dinner, edited by Chef Daniel Canzian, I heard the story from the protagonists who reported to relive this vine.

It all started when, in 1920, Antonio Longanesi nicknamed precisely Bursôn, became curious noticing a wild vine clinging to an oak. Given the resistance of the plant decided, since the mid-fifties, of cultivating, producing a wine that, with his initial surprise, reached an alcohol content of 14 degrees.
From that moment, with the birth of the consortium and with the synergy of the seventeen producers associated, has continued to promote the dissemination and knowledge of the wine of ancient origin.
During the tasting, despite the constant of the same grape variety, territory and winemaker, I had the pleasure of tasting a wine with characteristics different. To influence, in addition to the hand of the producer, the origin of a land crossed by three different rivers.

The wines tasted: Bursôn annate dal 2005 to the 2009 – Rambèla – Dear sweet malbo version – Bursôn Passito – Sparkling Rambèla of Bursôn
Produced in two types: Bursôn Etichetta Blu from non-dried grapes, and Bursôn Black Label from dried grapes and aged in wood for over two years.
Speaking with producers and listening to their choices, I could not help but point out that when we talk about agriculture held in, rather than changes in life, I believe that there is talk of return. Italy is a country tied to the land. Farmers were peasants and go back to being. About the use of capital letters, because the people who today are oriented towards agriculture, are formed and prepared as it should be. Recovering traditions and using modern technology, guarantee the quality of products while maintaining their typical.
The only hope is the help of the administrative apparatus of competence, nell'alleggerire those who really want to work the land and to produce. One word is decisive for the future development of agriculture: #sburocratizzare!
