Yes, it has been a busy week in my life. Another birthday, a knee operation and some serious painkillers. Needless to say, I’ve been off the wine trail for a bit. I can’t wait to get back on it but until I do, I will be writing fondly about wines I have tried over the course of the last few years. Thanks for keeping up with Avvinare. I miss my blog but the pain killer fog has been intense these past few days. I suspect it will clear shortly. Thanks for sticking with me friends and conoscenti. I really appreciate it.

Buon compleanno amica – hope you are up and about soon – stay cool
(sorry I was late in wishing you a happy birthday)
