A diner who was charged with ordering the wine for a table where everyone had ordered meat dishes asked the waiter for a wine suggestion.
The waiter suggested a Brunello.
The diner asked, Is that red?
Andrea Gamon, hearing that little tale, was aghast. Brunello?! she asked. Doesn't everyone know Brunello?
No, Brunello is not a household word in the United State ...
