How do you compete...




not only with 2 girls in skin tight unitards (gold as opposed to silver this year) with uncanningly natural-seeming golden wigs, but in addition...a topless chick with gold body paint?

And I must admit, Chiara and I looked pretty damn cute in our new Custo Barcelona dresses.

Yes. Astoria, the stand always directly right in front of the Coffele stand at Vinitaly, outdid themselves and busted out with some new tricks this year. The topless girl posing and lounging around the stand on the last day of Vinitaly being one of them.

Have a feeling most people will not remember what Astoria actually produces...but, will not be able to forget the golden girls. Heck, it took me until day #3 to realize they produced prosecco.

Chiara already has some ideas for pushing the envelope next year at the Coffele stand for Vinitaly...one involving she and I and a bathtub filled with her fabulous Recioto di Soave, "Le Sponde" (a beautiful dessert wine produced with 100% garganega grapes).

I think we should keep it simple and have the theme for the 2009 Coffele stand be "Tutti nudi."

Don't think a translation is required. Hopefully.
