NEW NORMAL


        vineyards, in order to have a sustainable viti-
        culture, producing wines in a way that is good
        for the world, using practices that are healthier
        and produce less pollution. In other words, be
        able to offer this type of product in quantity in
        5 years, when I hope our world will return to
        total normality.
          I conclude by emphasizing that saving the
        entire commercial wine production chain will
        allow many global wine companies to survive
        this tragedy that affects us as a society. In Chi-
        le, it will help out the small and medium-sized
        companies, so that they do not have to uproot
        their vineyards to replace them with more
        profitable crops, such as cherries, blueberries,
        avocados, hazelnuts or olive trees. ƅ    Sergio judges at Vinalies Internationales in Paris
