The alternative idea, that displaces at first but then wins, is a finger food, specifically designed to match with the wine company, a lunch, eaten standing up, hanging around in the basement, listening to the story (yes, a story, not a guided tour) of the landlord, or sit under the gazebo and verandas, in the hills around mmirando.
The particular combination was born from the synergy between the Az. The Carpini and Ass. 41 , who wanted to organize this anniversary, something special, unique.
And the challenge to Eno-trivial, in which guests attended, sealed the success, the famous game, Trivial, adapted to the oenological world, through a series of questions, not always within reach of less experienced, conceived and created by Alter-Eno with materials such as cork, wood, tralcetti lives.
Thus, the traditional day out on a rainy Sunday in June visiting a winery, becomes a time to meet and exchange fun and food, which reserves really nice moments in which, during which I present, they felt welcome guests and not just 'potential-customers'. Some
