Yesterday evening we went with my old friend Dindo to visit his friend and colleague pop star Neffa outside Bologna (yes, Neffa!). He offered to open a Nero d’Avola by Cos but when we saw the train station master’s homemade sparkling Montepulciano we HAD to have it. Clean, fresh, and delicious!

That’s so awesome! Did you all shoot it back or did you eat something with it?
Wow, I love Neffa! My favorite song of his “Le Ore Piccole”. It’s a little-known fact that Neffa (real name Giovanni Pellino) took his stage name as an homage to the somewhat obscure Paraguayan winger Gustavo Neffa, who played for Cremonese in the early-90s. Did you guys get to jam?
PS: Congratulations again on the wedding — you both look great! Salutami l’Italia!
