The Giro d'Italia started this weekend in Denmark. The racers hit Italian soil in Verona on Wednesday May 9th for a Team Time Trial. The Team Time Trial is a relatively unique event that does not occur in very many races. The Giro d'Italia is one stage race that seems to offer up this unique race on a consistent basis.
Just like the Team Time Trial, Amarone is a unique style of wine that you do not find in very many places. Verona, in the Veneto region, is one place that has focused on making this intense style of red wine.
This week the Lucha Vino challenge features an Italian original facing off against an Oregon new comer made from Columbia Valley grapes.
