I haven’t kept up with the Scavinos at all. Read the note quickly (despite all Tom’s interesting content the layout and style isn’t conducive to much more than skimming, sometimes sadly) and thought there wasn’t a misprint in the title, this must be a spinoff by the daughter Paola trying to make up for the sins of, not the grandfather Paolo, but the father Enrico. Alas…

Not a lot of sorrisi from Scavino wines.
