What you will learn about the wines of Tuscany and Piemonte will only be out down by what you will learn about the wine life. Raising 3 children while becoming a million miler in the air, Cristina Mariani-May keeps it all together.
I caught up with her in Irvine in the middle of her whirlwind tour of the West Coast promoting the wines of Banfi. She is elegant, engaging and funny all at the same time. And let's not forget her flat out wine knowledge and wine wisdom.
We discuss raising kids, the ethereal wine experience, the challenges of the industry and much more. Had she not had to move from out impromptu studio into a vendor lunch...we could have spoken for another hour.
Have a listen...and learn.
