New Year's Eve Movie: The Barolo Boys
We had a slow start today because we were watching a movie called The Barolo Boys about how a small group of men and one woman made Nebbiolo in barriques and put the Langhe region on the global wine map.
The movie is a very even handed account of tradition versus innovation in making wine from the Nebbiolo grape. It was a nice way to ease into the work day, which is more irrigation work, (even though it is New Year's Eve) while the sun shines!
Wishing you all a very Happy New Year!
