Asconi Completes Planting of 925
Acres of Vineyards
WEDNESDAY, JULY 14, 9:30 AM ET
ORLANDO, Fla., July 14 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Asconi
Corporation (Amex: ACD), an Eastern European producer of wines and
spirits, today announced that it has completed planting of approximately
925 acres of vineyards in the central region of Moldova. The Company
planted primarily Cabernet-Sauvignon, Merlot and Chardonnay grapes,
having purchased the region- adapted rootstocks from Vivai Marchi
of Italy and Phillippe Dayde of France.
The vineyards are expected to produce the first harvest in the
fall of 2007 and reach full production capacity in 2009. Based on
Asconi's preliminary estimates, once the Company owns the source
of primary raw material, the average cost per bottle of wine will
decrease by 25 to 35 percent.
Asconi currently owns approximately 3,000 acres of premium land
in the central regions of Moldova. At present, Asconi continues
to acquire vineyard land, as the Company's long-term strategy is
a step-by-step planting of vineyards until the quantity of grapes
collected from the vineyards meet 100% of the annual grape needs
of the Company.
