"The Wine Doesn't Know"
Our tour leader laughed when I said, "I thought this was a wine tasting not a wine drinking?" Welcome to Italy! Cheers on the bus go rounds and rounds... Our first two wine tastings have set the bar pretty high for all the inevitable ones down the road. I remember cracking a joke months ago - near the start of this crazy process - that Brian was going to have to trade in his whisky collecting habit for wine bottles. Since then I've learned of a nifty term called the "wine shipment." Apparently, the DoD is keenly aware of the impulse to try, and then buy, local wines. When we come home in a few years, part of our allowance will be a "wine shipment" - a tax and duty free, shipping included, pallet of up to 300 bottles of wine.
