Weekly Wine Quiz #51 – Hiding in the Plain Sight, Part 2
It is Saturday again, therefore, it is time for the wine quiz!
I want to continue the theme of the previous wine quiz #50, where you were supposed to find as many wine and winery names as possible in a small fragment of [poorly written] fictional dialog. The quiz seemed to be successful, but it happened to be focused mostly on California wines. Below you will find the text where I really made an effort to include the wines from all over the world. Just to give you some clues – it is possible that some of the words will lead to multiple wine/winery names – you will need to name at least one. Also, a lot of words (but not all) below will be a part of the two-word wine/winery name – you will need to name the full two-word name for it to count. To give you an example – if you would see the name Phelps in the text, the right answer would be Joseph Phelps, as it is an official name of the California winery. Capish? I thought so. Last note – it is okay to use Goggle – I think it will be a fun game in any case. Let’s proceed.
– Hey, Gloria, Mr. Giribaldi is here. You really have to tell me if you are going to Sicilia with him. The ticket will cost only $890. Your aunt Elena and cousin Ben will be excited to see you. Your great-grand aunt Olga is turning hundred! Everybody will be there. Remember Livio, the blue eyed boy? He was such a little angel… Anyway, he is coming with Virginia, and I’m sure you will have lots of catching up to do.
– okay, mom, I will go. By the way, if you see Kay, tell him that I’m through with him.
Again, there should be more than ten wines (and I will also wait for someone to tell me about the wines I even didn’t know exist) – but even if you can’t find any – your comment will be loved in any case.
Good luck, have fun, have a great weekend and cheers!

This is tough…I only recognize Mario Giribaldi…and it is too early to start google-ing for me…you know by now that I am lazy…:)
thanks for playing! You can continue later : )
I have no clue.. Looking forward to the answers.
Ouch, I was really hoping I’m making it easier this time… Have I really over-done it that badly?
As an example, let me give you an answer for one of the wines in the text. One of the names in the text is “Ben” – how about “Ben Rye” as an answer?
Oh well, the answer are coming on Wednesday in any case : )
Ok I see what you mean.

Thanks for playing! You did pretty well, especially including the wines I never heard of (but it was rather expected). The answer is coming on Wednesday.
