Mille grazie, RICHARD!
Our Regional Vice President, Rich Ryba, did a fantastic job in
arranging a Skype tasting for the assembled members from all the Western Pennsylvania
chapters. We enjoyed four offerings from
the Berlucchi estate in the Franciacorta DOCG, presented by representatives in
Italy. (Isn’t technology wonderful!) Rich arranged the wines and the Harmarville
Comfort Inn provided the food to accompany the sparkling selections.
