| Italian wine, unique design | | 2008-07-04 13:15:00 | | Resembling something more like a bottle of shampoo, Voga will be marketed towards the younger, more "style-conscious Millenial generation" of wine drinkers, but could result in consumers thinking they’ve ended up in the health and beauty section of Tesco. Simon Bradbury, Sales Director of GAW, said: “We believe that bold innovation is key in order to attract new consumers and trade others up through the wine category. Voga has proved a massive hit across the world, so we are confident it will also excite plenty of interest in the UK.” Voga has exceeded company expectations across the pond, but GAW and Enoitalia may be taking a gamble with the brand, as older wine drinkers could be put off by the uncharacteristic design of the bottle. The cork closure with large, airtight twist cap is however a thoughtful feature, and will keep the wine fresh for longer.

The allegations were first made in a news magazine report and the Agriculture Ministry has confirmed that hundreds of thousands of bottles of the wine have been seized by investigators. A letter by the US Treasury's Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau to the Italian embassy in Washington said US customs authorities had been told to "withhold the release of all shipments" of the wine from June 9 unless Italy or importers could demonstrate only Sangiovese grapes were used.

A total 2.3 million hectoliters were exported for a total worth of 1.13 billion dollars, and a large jump ahead of the main competitors, France and Australia. In 2007, Italy exported double the quantity of its French rivals and 400,000 hectoliters more than Australia.“The most interesting aspect” – declared Jacopo Biondi Santi, Chairman of the Italian Wine & Food Institute – “is that Italy closed out 2007 with an increase of 9% in quantity and value, while Australia registered a decrease in quantity of 3.5% and only a slight increase in value of 3.2%. An even more significant fact, if it is taken into consideration that Italy had more difficulties to confront than Australia, above all, because of the strength of the euro over the dollar, which has reduced the competitiveness of Italian producers”.
