Apuan Alps Geopark

Global Warming Age:

It is difficult to effectively fight the
climate change...
it is simpler to prepare for change and exploit its potential benefits...
The Global Warming is an obvious phenomenon,
moving plantations further north in latitude and higher in altitude. The
Apuan Alps are not a land of winemaking tradition, but they will soon become
one.
In Bosa farm, the Park has planted an experimental vineyard which already
produces mountain wine of good quality.
At an altitude of 850 m, the Geopark
Farm has the highest Tuscan vineyard in production.
