| | BACKGROUND |
 | | As to the province of Palermo there are clear signs indicating that the attempt of reunifying the “families” led by PROVENZANO faces opposition. | | | From a police check carried out in September 2000, for example, 25 important members of Bari-based clans were identified in a restaurant; this meeting could be seen as an attempt at finding a truce between the fighting clans, an attempt at subdividing their interests. | | | Some investigators believe that most of the authors come from other provinces operating in agreement with local clans. |

| | MINISTERO DELL'INTERNO |
| | This is obviously part of a large-scale project and there is reason to believe that main objectives include the attempt to reduce the heavy effects caused by the government’s response to the extreme violence of the "bombings wing". | | | In this regard, it should be noted that, according to investigative elements gathered in 1997, MADONIA had, at that time, a significant role in the management of public contracts also in the province of Agrigento. | | | Hence, we cannot exclude the possibility of new murders in the Locri area in order to maintain the balance resulting from the armed truce between the CORDI’ family and the CATALDO family. |

| | All of this has been definitively clarified by scientific research carried out in the post-World War II period, and by now there are few doubts that this is a variety in its own right with nothing whatsoever to do with Sangiovese or other grapes erroneously baptized with the name of Montepulciano. | | | This and other Pallagrello Nero-based wines were already known for their aging ability, to the point that they were not only described as the best wines of the province but also capable of lasting well over a decade. | | | As a province, Massa Carrara is not particularly well known for its viticulture; its main claim to fame, in fact, come from the marble quarries in the mountains just inland from the coast near the city of Carrara which yield a pure a brilliant white stone much sought out by interior decorators and designers. |

| | Italian D.O.C. Wines |
| | Viticulture has been practiced in the Trapani area since ancient times and Alcamo was noted for the quality of its wines long before the 19th century, when they were in great demand in northern Italy for the preparation of vermouths because of their high alcohol levels (13ø-17ø). | | | Altogether, the province's vineyards cover a total of 83,750 hectares and they are the most extensive not only on the island but also in the whole of Italy. | | | The soil around the rootstocks is then broken up by hand so that the vine's roots will be able to "breathe." The approach was conceived empirically before science provided its explanation and ratification. |
