21 COMMERCIAL THE 100-year history of Malta's top winery is explored in an ex- clusive book by renowned writ- er Victor Calleja. Marsovin has announced the launch of an exclusive new book that tells the story of the winery from its humble beginnings in 1919 to leading Malta's wine in- dustry today. Commissioned by Marsovin to commemorate its 100th an- niversary, 'A Century of Wine: The Marsovin Story' has been penned by renowned Maltese writer Victor Calleja, and fea- tures historic accounts and rare photographs sourced from the company archives and the National Archives of Malta. Calleja also includes personal interviews he has conducted with eyewitnesses who recall the extraordinary journey of Marsovin and the Cassar family through the years. "We are delighted and proud to be able to commit the Mar- sovin story to print, and to cel- ebrate our century as pioneers in Malta's wine industry," says Jeremy Cassar, CEO of Marso- vin, and great-grandson of Mar- sovin's original founder. "This incredible 100-year milestone for the company is also a mile- stone for my family, who have been instrumental in the com- pany's longevity and success. The book is the chance to put our family history into print at last, for posterity." Founded in 1919 by Chev An- thony Cassar, who purchased wine from local importers and sold it from horse-drawn carts across the island, Marsovin has remained a family-run business and has achieved renown as a name synonymous in Malta with premium wines. Through- out the century in which it has forged Malta's wine industry, Marsovin has been the first to sell wine in glass bottles, has built Malta's first temperature- controlled fermentation tanks, and has launched the label's first vintage, estate and organic wines. Only a limited run of 'A Cen- tury of Wine: The Marsovin Story' will be produced, with each of the 2,500 beautifully de- signed, high-quality copies to be individually numbered for ex- clusivity. The book is now avail- able for sale from the Marsovin Cellars and from leading book retailers in Malta and Gozo. maltatoday | SUNDAY • 19 MAY 2019 EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND LOCAL COUNCIL ELECTIONS – 25TH MAY, 2019 Persons who have not yet received their voting document/s The Electoral Commission notifies voters that today is the last half day in which they may call personally at their Local Police Station to collect their voting document/s by showing their Identity or Residence Card as follows: Sunday 19th May: 8.00 a.m. until 1.00 p.m. Voting documents registered under Marsalforn shall be collected from Kaċċatur Flats, Xagħra Road, Marsalforn.

Cheques will no longer be transferable to third parties. As a result, the Bank will no longer issue 'or order' cheques'. This is in line with interna- tional practice to protect the Bank's customers against the risk of misappropriation of their funds, even if a cheque book is lost or stolen, and con- currently combatting money laundering. Customers can continue to use their current stock of 'or order' BOV cheques until they order and receive a new chequebook. For increased convenience and ease of use, Bank of Val- letta encourages customers to use alternative payment chan- nels such as BOV Mobile, BOV Internet Banking, BOV Cards and the Bank's extensive ATM network. Deposits of 'only' cheques can also be affected to joint accounts at any BOV branch provided they are presented for deposit by the payee in per- son.
