23/05/2025: Rather than Wine Friends it should be called Wine Enemies since the customers are not exactly polite. Or at least with the Italian ones, since with foreigners on the contrary they are almost flattered. My embarrassing (for them) story begins on a Friday afternoon when I enter this shop to buy a nice birthday present and choose a nice bottle of local wine. My bad luck was sharing the space with two Japanese customers to whom the kind (so to speak) lady was proposing her wines. I approached asking if I could look too, since I was interested in that part of the shelf they were looking at. She said yes, with an apparently very kind manner - this is true. But it was an affected kindness because I had already seen that the lady didn't like it too much. The worst was when I moved the paper string of a wine without obviously touching the bottle, to read the price well. I repeat: the price tag on the string. The lady, in front of the Japanese customers, looked at me and said "please, don't touch the bottles". Between shocked and frozen I look at her apologizing and saying that I hadn't touched the bottle but the price tag. And she replies that (quote) "I have so many bottles, if all the customers touched them you can imagine". In the meantime imagine what. Given that it's a hole in the wall shop and the bottles are so close to each other that it would be impossible to move them. After that, showing this rudeness towards a customer who didn't do anything and, on the contrary, making fun of the Japanese customers, well that says a lot. So much so that I left and - dulcis in fundo of sadness - she even opened the door for me "because it's heavy". Adding insult to injury. Now I understand why that shop was empty. I went to another shop: I was able to take the bottles, see the labels, get help from a very polite girl who also let me taste the wine and explain it to me, advising me and guiding me in the purchase. Lady: you have a lot to learn. And remember that the Japanese come only once, the Italians return. If you treat yourself well. It is not his case.
