Anteprime - Lugana: il frutto salato del Garda
Una premessa. La mia amicizia con Paolo De Cristofaro mi mette in una condizione di evidente conflitto di interessi non, di certo, in merito ai vini in degustazione ma nel raccontare, innanzitutto, del luogo dove quest'evento ha avuto luogo lo scorso martedì 30 giugno...

Bottom Line: This is a simple, dependable machine that makes good coffee with minimal effort. The price is high, but in a few months that won't matter, and you'll still have something worth drinking.

German wines: delight in red and white
It went extremely well with the food that I had ordered (Italian pasta filled with mushrooms). The wine is perfect and was a good choice.

The wine here is so brilliant you forget that you are in a very dull and boring tasting tasting room with nothing but a simple table. small boutique winery that specializes in brilliant red wine wow very very pricey though
