Chinese wine writer Denis Lin was one of the coolest cats I met on this trip. He draws the label of many of the wines he tastes in his tasting book. “This way, I don’t get drunk,” he said. His drawings are amazing.
One of the cool things about Barbera Meeting was the folks I met from all over the world. There were a lot of Asian buyers and writers here…
Denis, above, is currently in talks to appear in the sequel to The Barbera 7, scheduled release 2011, working title: The Barbera 8.
In other news…

Dear Jeremy,
Thanks! And you are the coolest I met in Asti.
Hope next time you can teach me some Medieval Italian poets!
Keep in touch & keep cool,
