Today, I noticed an old souvenir of a wine bottle in the corner of my den. It is one of the last remnants of my previous life as a wine importer. The bottle is the one on the left (back label is below). For two years I tried my hand at importing four varietals (Chardonnay, Merlot, Aleatico, and Syrah) from the family winery. I haven't thought about that back label text that I wrote for my importation company "Blackfoot Wines" in at least a decade ...
The other memorial to those years is a cross stitch that Irene made for me years ago (also in the den!):
The bottle on the right is from my cousin's baby's baptism in Corsica a few years back (Yes, my uncle did a novelty bottling for his own grandson!). Here's a pic from that 2018 day of me holding the star of the show (Saveriu):
