  1. Love this question and Vietti! I wouldn’t turn down Barolo at any age, but 10 + years are exceptionally lovely!

  2. Lucca describing the "conjunction of the moon and the sun with the light hitting the wine cellar" reminds me of the Map Room in Raiders of the Lost Ark. If Indiana Jones had simply opened the Ark when he had the corkscrew in his hand he would have avoided all those snakes. (forgive the 1980's pop culture reference). You guys are doing a great job, keep it up.

  3. HELP! I don't know anything about Italian wines and I am so confused! I am diving into Italian wines and I quickly figured out that Borolo is King. So is Borolo like left bank Bordeaux? Best after 20 years? That guy on the left knew his wine and I thought I heard him say 20-25….. so confusing…..SO, when should I drink a Borolo? 10, 14, 20 there is always opinions but I don't know. My parents were Napa winos and a once in a while 25 year old Rothschild for Xmas, but it was Caymus Special Selection all the way in Cali. Can someone help me answer this? I have a 1999 Borolo and I want to pop it for a friends bday coming up.
