ITALIAN DESIGNER YOU MOST CLOSELY ASSOCIATE YOURSELF WITH:

MOTOGUZZI, VESPA, FIAT 500, FERRARI, DUCATI OR COLNAGO?

FAVORITE ITALIAN SAYING:
Non si puo avere la botte piena e' la moglie ubriaca. (you can't have a full bottle and a drunken wife)
ITALIAN PARKING STORY:
The first time I was in Rome, an old man lost his parking space to a group of ragazzi, so he just parked his Cinquecento on the sidewalk !
LONGEST MEAL:
I don't know if it was the longest, but one of the most memorable was Artner in Vienna. They make their own wine and cheese just outside of the city.
FAVORITE COFFEE - ILLY or ILLY ? I love the first cappuccino when arriving at the airport - even the airport bars serve delicious coffee in Italy!
FAVORITE ITALIAN DIRECTOR: Fellini, but because I adore his wife Giulietta Masina
MOST PERSONALLY INFLUENTIAL WINES EXPERIENCED:
Wines that capture spirit, history and sense of place. Hard to say exactly which wine got me into the wine business, but wines like Poggio Scalette Il Carbonaione and Inama Foscarino sure make me glad that this is where I wound up!
