Q

What is the story behind the name of Est! Est!! Est!!! di Montefiascone DOC

A

A medieval German bishop traveling to Rome sent an emissary in advance to scout out the taverns serving the best wine. He marked the doors of the qualifying establishments with the Latin word est, “it is,” and was purportedly so captivated with the wines of Montefiascone that he scrawled Est! Est!! Est!!! on its local inn
