1. Seems as big and foot-punishing as before but the American presence seems reduced. SEEMS being the operative word here.
2. It also seems to be a good place to meet people who otherwise haunt the blogosphere. Wolfgang Weber, Ronald who lives at Padova, Giampiero of Aristide, Lizzy of vinopigro and more.
3. The food inside the walls of the fair still sucks. The wine sold in the caffs is low-grade Bolla. Inspired choice.
4. Golly, another big wine scandal is brewing! It has to do with -- I can't say yet. I can tell you it isn't about Brunello.
