Giorgio Nicolini Piccola Nera (2020)

Giorgio Nicolini Piccola Nera (2020) A magic hillside facing Trieste across the shimmering Adriatic. It’s Vienna by-the-sea, a place of undimmed Austro-Hungarian architectural magic, and the setting for Zeno’s Conscience, my favorite book written in Italian that wasn’t written by Natalia Ginzburg. Drink Piccola Nera with freshly fried fish (the smaller the better) or fresh pasta, either filled with game, or with herbs in butter sauce.
