When wandering around Florence, if you're observant, you may notice little nooks in the sides of buildings in the shape of a tiny door or window. Present for centuries, this building feature was not only pretty but practical. These Medieval curiosities were a way for Florentines to buy their supply of wine.
Well, over 150 wine windows or buchette del vino have been identified in Florence. Our guest, sommelier and photographer Robbin Gheesling, joins us to share the stories and myths around this unique architectural feature, where to find them and how they've been adapted into the life of modern Florence.
