I don't know if your using glass carboys or not, but my last episode of making wine was a disaster. I had to move a full 5 gallon glass carboy when I bearly tapped it against a table. I swear the glass carboy exploded like a grenade. I think it would have been cheaper, easier and faster to rip the house down and build a new house then it was to clean that room up. NEVER AGAIN!

I was just kidding, my friend. You seem like a very enterprising young Italian.

I have a first cousin who lives in Naples - she's been there since 1969.

looks pretty heady stuff. Red wine always gives me a bad head - but I love it all the same.

That's an idea, the 'TRF 2008 vintage', might be a great drop.

Now that's a thought. The shipping cost is going to be a factor, and I'm not sure how many guys here would like a bottle.
But having said that it may well be worth a little more investigation.
