fine wines and long nights

I just finished a day in Montepulciano where I sampled some Rosso, Vino Nobile and Brunello as well as Vin Santo, Grappa and the rest of the works. It was quiet and sleepy like all of Italia in the off-season. But the weather was beautiful again.

I'm in for some long days of travel. Tonight/tomorrow I head to Milano then Brescia (which is the closest city of any size to Salò). Then I leave the next morning to celebrate Karneval in Cologne. And back a few days later to move in and start work. It will be nice to have a place to call home and not live my life out of a backpack.

But tonight, it's Juve v. Inter in the quarters for the Coppa Italia. FORZA LA JUVE!!!
