Beautiful experience, tastings of excellent wines with a great value for money... and then seeing the emotion in the eyes of the winemaker (a very knowledgeable young girl) who told us about "her" wines, says everything about the passion of a small big local reality. Thanks also to the seller. PS Cricket tops for me.
