Sobre la bodega y los vinos

In today’s daily life, for most people it would be unfathomable not to have the TV practically always on. But in Valgiano, there is no TV, and this reminded me of the summer holiday evenings during the 1960s… ‘70s… ‘80s… when we used to turn on the TV to see some special event like… the first man on the moon!! Instead, I remember with a bit more nostalgia the parlor games that everyone could take part in, young and old! One of them, perhaps my favorite, was: “If it were a…” where one person, in turn, would think of a place or a character and the others would try and discover what it was by asking “if it were a piece of furniture, what would it be? And the first person to guess would choose a new subject. So, let the game begin! I’m thinking of a name or a place: I) question: if it were a painter? An Impressionist like Sisley or Pissarro with their transparent, lively, natural colors 2) if it were a musical instrument? A harp for its delicate and extremely melodious sound 3) if it were a singer? Aznavour, Yves Montand, DeAndré who express feelings and emotions with harmony, elegance
