Hospitality can be found in any and every aspect of our lives, whether it be in personal or a professional setting. In its true essence it allows us to look past our differences and find similarities regardless of what belief system or cultural background we come from. Thank you to those who joined in celebrating The Silk Table’s inaugural dinner tasting event: Wine & Wagyu. It was an absolute pleasure curating a dining experience that I feel has deepened our shared appreciation of food & wine cultureOf the Food & Wine culture.

Pigato, a white grape varietal that can be found in the west part of Liguria. Whenever I think seafood, I automatically think of @mariadonatabianchi as a perfect compliment! . . . #wine #winecountry #wineproducer #winetour #pigato #whitewine #winewinewine #wines #winestagram #vino #wein #viniitaliani #vinoitaliano #winetime #womeninwine (at Liguria, Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs5zsYMhQhw/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3u7b827sjzhg

Art is the truest form of storytelling—shaping our perception of the world we live in. What stories do we know of and share? Or more importantly, which interpretation? So many questions, so many variations of what we believe... . . . . #art #storytelling #brushstrokes #timeless #read #writersofinstagram #words #history #culturaldevelopment #travelanddiscover #moderncaveman #inspirationalquotes #artwork #instaart (at Palazzo Vertemate Franchi) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsQyimGBiPa/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1j7tzh71dfwkg

I would like you to all meet my new friend, Gianna. She is really productive when it comes to making goat cheese. Most days we spend time staring at each other, there are long walks up and down the hill, she loves to climb pretty much everything. Thank you @jackmanzoni for introducing us to each other, you really know your friends well! . . . . #ohmygoat #friends #friendships #farmhouse #animals #goat #goatcheese #myfriendsarebetterthanyours #notyouraverage #bestlooking #outinthewild #italiancheese #dontstare (at Italy) https://www.instagram.com/p/BmFrp50gZXM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8pf7td5vis4v

With most of the attention always being on Sangiovese in Tuscany, it's always nice to meet wine producers that work with #canaiolo. In most Tuscan wines there is always some canaiolo hidden somewhere. @laquerce you can find a 100% canaiolo in #belrosso, with lots of freshness and spice on the nose, in the mouth it is silk fruit, like nothing you have ever tasted. And, they don't stop there. Versatility of this grape is immense, and after dinner I also had the chance to taste #passito from this grape varietal. Bunches are gently twisted on the vines to cut of the circulation in order for the grapes to achieve sweetness, body, and complexity that is un parallel to any other passito I have tasted. Why drink the same, when you can drink different everyday! . . . . #winelover #wineblog #wine #winecountry #redwine #grapes #vines #vineyardvines #harvest #vino #vinoitaliano #girovino2018 #instawine #winenot https://www.instagram.com/p/BmDTTMsAEda/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=10bvuntqvfq8l

The golden hue is starting to arrive on these beautiful bunches of #vermentino. The days can be really hot, but in the evening the cool breeze from the mountains is what allows the grape to maintain the freshness, and the acidity we find in every glass of #cantinalvnae wines. . . . . #wine #vines #vineyardvines #winetime #wineblog #wineoftheday #vinephotography #winecountry #winenot #wein #vino #instapic #instawine (at Ca' Lunae) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bl-K4AdgknI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=d015oj2z4aln

After much anticipation, and many kilometres of biking from Oltrepo Pavese, I finally made it back to Chiavri to watch how #bissonabisso ages their sparkling wine under 45meter below sea. Unfortunately, this footage is just what's I was able to recover before I lost my #drone #mavicair to the sea. I don't feel so sad about loosing the drone, but really sad about not being able to share the wonderful experience I had seeing the whole process, specially when it only happens once a year. Life goes on, today is another day with many new opportunities! #cestlavie. . . . . #lifelessons #underthesea #newday #lostdrone #now #lostexperience #onceayear #movingon #ontothenextone #nothingisforever (at Portofino) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bl7c9qMBHz4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1euyn7bbxuf0w

#pinotnero the crown jewel of Oltrepo Pavese. This is the calm before the storm. It's almost #harvest time, @tenutaquvestra not every grape makes it way to the winery. Green harvest is an important part to ensure quality in every glass. @simomiry thank you for the wonderful hospitality! Hope this an amazing #vintage for you. . . . . #winelover #winecountry #winetime #vineyardvines #vines #vino #vinoitaliano #girovino2018 #sunset #vinephotography #wineoftheday #winetour (at Santa Maria della Versa)

The road that separates the two DOC's, Colli Piacentini and Olteropo Pavese, in between Castello di Luzzzano finds a way to maintain the balance to provide an expression of the best of both worlds. . . . . #vineyardvines #vines #wineproblems #winelover #winecountry #winephotography #winetour #castellodiluzzano #wine #wein #girovino2018 #dji #arielview #wineblog #winetime (at Castel San Giovanni)

Looking at nature is never boring. Thank you Elena for hosting me at the winery and sharing your passion for wine.
