"In the region north of Morbegno in the Costiera dei Cech live a cultural group believed to descend from an 8th century Frankish invasion of Italy."

And these people are named...? Please provide more information.

Contribution to the section "folklore" edit

Dear users, after some research about the cultural heritage of Valtellina for the university project https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:GLAM/UNIBG I have added some information to the page. In particular, I have added the section "Folklore" enriching it with information connected to the traditional events of the valley. I also added two pictures for which I obtained the authorisation from the owner.

Wines edit

The article does not take into account the actual authoritative ital. Disciplinare. The DISCIPLINARE DI PRODUZIONE DEI VINI A DENOMINAZIONE DI ORIGINE CONTROLLATA “VALTELLINA ROSSO” O "ROSSO DI VALTELLINA" and the DISCIPLINARE DI PRODUZIONE DEI VINI A DENOMINAZIONE DI ORIGINE CONTROLLATA E GARANTITA "VALTELLINA SUPERIORE".

Therefore the description is wrong in several points: 1. The DOC and DOCG wines both require a minimum percentage of Nebbiolo of 90%. 2. For the DOC wines, the maximum yield is 10 tons of grapes/hectare (and for DOCG wines 8 tons). 3. DOC wines must be aged for at least 6 months, DOCG wines for at least 24 months and DOCG wines with the additional designation Riserva for at least 36 months. 4. The minimum alcohol content for DOC wines is 11% and for DOCG wines 12%. 5. Grumello, Inferno and Valgella aren't villages, but only wine-growing subzones.
