On the occasion of the 15th International Wine-Award in Zurich, «Prix Vetropack» has been awarded in September 2008 for the seventh time. The Jury gave the «Great Gold» to 16 wines - the greatest honour in this competition. Out of their middle came also the winner of «Prix Vetropack», the Merlot «Agra-Collina d'Oro» from Azienda Vitivinicola Pelossi & Co, Pazzallo. This award allows the winner to appear on the market with an innovative, personalized bottle-design - and Sacha Pelossi lets his whole region take part in his success:

On the occasion of the 25-Years-Jubilee of AVVT «Associazione viticoltori vinificatori ticinesi», in November 2009, going along with a special degustation-parcours at Via Nassa in Lugano, the new, plain and elegant bottle was presented.
