Benissimo

Excellently, famously, fine, finely, very well. That is Negozio Classica. This unassuming wine bar was a great stumble across. Lovely and cosy on Wednesday night. Italian... including Ricardo, our waiter and wine aid, from La Spezia (near the Cinque Terre for those who've been there). The wine we drank was benissimo. I can't recall whether it was a Barolo or Barbera, but it was a smooth red, from near the town of Alba in Piedmont. Nebbiolo and Barbaresco are two other very renowned varietals from that region... for next time though. The rest on Wednesday night - the Parmigiano Reggiano, the chocolate fondant we had late - benissimo. Grazie.

See you soon.
