Getting large quantities of wine for a private view in Venice takes a little more organisation than filling your car boot at the local supermarket. Luckily we had help. On Wednesday morning the four of us got to Piazzale Roma for 7.30am to pick up 72 bottles of wine and 5 kilos of Grana Padano cheese from our sponsors Agrigelateria sull'aia (http://www.cortefenilazzo.it/)We were met by Maria and Edoardo, who had come all the way from their Dairy Ice Cream Farm on the shores of Lake Garda to deliver to us. As well as cheese and wine from their own vineyard, the Agrigelateria is best known for its delicious, award-winning ice cream for which people travel far and wide.
With our suitcases and bags bursting with produce, we headed back to the venue on a vaporetto and then made our way over bridges and canals with a borrowed trolley.
