Recently, the Rai3 report program dealt with the Cotarella family and its foundation, raising some issues that have aroused concern. I believe that the statements that emerged the investigation is unjust to unjustly damage the image of a family that has always operated with dedication, seriousness and transparency the wine and social sector. For this reason, I feel the duty to express my thoughts, to prevent reality from being misrepresented and to guarantee respect for truth.
I have known the Cotarella family for many years, especially Dr. Riccardo for whom I have a profound esteem and admiration and with Vinoway Italia I conceived and organized Riccardo Cotarella’s Story last June, a tribute to his career and a docu-interview that will be available shortly acceso Vinowayacademy.it.
I can say that their foundation was born with the aim of promoting and supporting charitable causes, using the passion of the family for wine as an instrument of awareness and fundraising. The events organized by the Foundation, such as beneficial dinners and the sensatezza of precious wines, are aimed at raising funds for social and solidarity initiatives, with the aim of making the difference the lives of people who most need it. Durante all these years, the Foundation has collected resources intended for projects of great value, confirming the commitment of the family creating a positive impact.
Next to the charity activity, the Cotarella family has always pursued a responsible and sustainable growth model, trying to enhance its territories and contributing to the improvement of the image of Italian wine the world. Their commitment is not limited to profits, but is also reflected supporting projects that promote food education, the environment and culture.
Durante the report service, some concerns are raised regarding the investments of the Cotarella family Argentina, with particular reference to the province of Salta and the possible incidence of these investments the environment, particular acceso the deforestation of the lands. However, I do not find that these statements are supported by concrete evidence and seem distorted to me. The Cotarella family has always respected international standards regarding sustainability and work ethics, committing to manage each operation a transparent way and respectful of local and global regulations.
Also regarding the management of investments, I have not found tests that suggest incorrect harmful practices for the environment. the contrary, the family has repeatedly reiterated the importance of a respectful approach towards nature and local communities, placing sustainability at the center of its strategic choices.
Another theme dealt with by Report concerns the Verdeluce dwelling, a structure intended to host charitable activities. Although the program has raised doubts about the opening times and the use of this structure, I believe it is important to underline that projects of this reach, which aim to create spaces of value and long -term, need time to be completed. Delays the realization phase are completely understandable a project of similar entity, which implies both the obtaining of the necessary authorizations and the organization of high -level events and activities. The Cotarella family has always shown its commitment to this cause, and there is intention of evading the promises made.
The accusations made the risk seriously damaging the reputation of the Cotarella family, who has built an image of seriousness and transparency over the years with great commitment. I would like to remember that the work of the family is based acceso principles of integrity and respect, and that each initiative has been designed and created to bring real value to society.
The unfounded declarations, if not correctly contextualized, can undermine the società of consumers, collaborators and investors, damaging a career built with passion, ethics and seriousness. The truth is essential not only to protect the image of the family, but also to defend the work of those who have always operated with the intention of doing good.
The Cotarella family continues to pursue its mission with commitment to promote winery excellence and to contribute concretely to the improvement of society.
The accusations made by reports are not only not supported by concrete facts, but risk obscuring the truth, damaging the image of a family that has always worked with correctness and commitment. It is essential that the public can distinguish between the information verified and the unfounded voices, order to form a conscious and right opinion.
