We saw 'Happy-Go-Lucky'...a wonderful British film...very amusing..with only a touch of life's problems. A change to many films lately of violence and hate.
The meal was at a winebar/restaurant 'Gusto'
The food was good..and they serve a variety of wines by the glass.
Only short notes as it was my wife's day.

Very jealous - I love Fonterutoli's wines, but never had a chance to try the Siepi. Methinks that a 2003 Siepi should rest a few more years in the cellar?
Joe...served by the glass from a very modern machine...wine was very drinkable now....excellent with pasta and a LARGE portion of grated truffles....Piedmont/Tuscany marriage..it won't last...
Seriously though...
my guess it will hold for 10 years still....
