Hi Sam! It was great meeting you too! (Lauren is on a road trip right now, but I was the one who had spoken with you the other night after Franco introduced us!) We absolutely love Enoteca Adriano and will be back again soon!

Just found your site! I love the road trip! At your age, just out of college, my bff and I took this very same road trip, with just a few minor route changes. We went a little further south thru TX, LA and FL and back up the East Coast. Lots of great memories came from it. Enjoy every moment on the road!
