If I知 ever able to leave this bloody Commonwealth again and travel there, I値l take you up on that.
You have far more patience than I do. If I know I have good anything around, I知 compelled to sip it.
There is one style I liked very much. I went to a dinner where most of the pairings were with Barolos. That was quite tasty stuff.

Both wonderful. I have a friend and client who is in to these, and was starting to get to know them better during the last couple of years of before-times.

I have to focus on them at restaurants, as my wife is not up to more strong Italians. She gets enough of that by injection!
