Italian grape region hit by heavy storms
Up until now, the Italian grape season has been running at full steam with very good quality, good demand and holding acceptable prices. Since Monday there has been increasing demand for grapes which has resulted in a slight rise in prices," Lucien said. "At PeDe there are all sorts of grapes widely available, partly due to scheduled shipments from Puglia moving to Sicily. The rain also fell in Sicily but not to the same extent and it did not stop any loading."
