Mark your calendars people! Mangialonga 2018 will take place August 26th. Sorry for using the same picture over and over, but come on – how cool are those women! Both Silvia and Jenny are truly amazing women, taking the wine world by storm! Can’t wait to see them again soon!
Ladies of Mangialonga
Dinner at More e Macine, La Morra
I will just share one photo for now from the wonderful weekend I just spent in Barolo. The weekend was filled with good wine, tasty food, amazing people and horrible weather! But for me the weather doesn’t play a huge role, especially with so many incredible people surrounding me.
The photo is from my Birthday dinner on Friday with my winemaker friends. You can spot Silvia Altare and Gigi, Giuliano and Stefania Corino, Nadia Curto and her husband Davide, Jenny Battaglino and Marco Marengo, my friends from Norway and my brother Ask. Quite a group of people! Not pictured is Fabio Burlotto and Chiara Boschis. I am so grateful that so many wonderful people wanted to share in my birthday celebration!
