Say you meet one of the scions of a great wine-producing family that also distributes great Italian wines – and fine wines from many other areas of the world. I don’t know about you, but it’s kind of not fair for this scion to be thin, blond, have a husband and several adorable children AND be running the Boston Marathon.

So Cristina Mariani-May of Banfi Vintners comes to lunch – which she barely has time to eat while she does a presentation of the Banfi company and its wonderful winery hotel in Montalcino, offers us a tasting of the wines before and with the meal, and leaves us all in the dust. And yet, I can’t hate her…
