Robyn is only mildly pleased with her recent acquisition. Yes, Scarpa is Scarpa, but 1974 is past its peak. A 1978 would have been more to her liking - or better yet, 1989. I offered her the 2001 Tettineive, but she snortingly rejected the olive branch - "too young!", she said, her steely eyes radiant with derision. To be sure, any barbaresco would have paired respectably with her beef heart treats, but a palate such as hers demands only perfection. I have failed you, Robyn.

These trees were filled with persimmons during our visit to Barolo in the fall. If only they were ripe, we would have been picking these off the trees and eating them like apples while we tasted the elegant, organic wines at Brezza.

When our friend @ceri_biondivino scored an appointment with a local winemaker @bonanini in Riomaggiore, we were sold!
