Tell us more about that.
0:20
It's, it, it's because it's true.
0:22
Uh, I say that because, uh, everybody's important in, uh, making a book, everybody at each step.
0:30
So, uh, when the car stop to make, uh, the oil, the change, et cetera, it's extraordinary how if one make a mistake, uh, the, the, the book can, can felt, you know, in the production, in, uh, copywriting, anywhere.
0:48
So it's because I feel it's really the team have to work 1,000% together.
0:52
So for me, that is Formula 1.

When we decide to create this book, we did it in rubber.
2:41
Is there any other specific points of the craftsmanship made in Italy that, uh, is important to note? Can you walk us through the, the production process of a book like that?

Prosper, what was the original idea behind it?
0:48
Is to give a sense of a book who is not just a book, it's an object.
0:53
It's like if I do the analogy of, uh, if I had to do a book on the chocolate, I would had, uh, uh, a bar of chocolate inside this book, and it's exactly what I wanted to have with the wine book.
1:06
So we designed the book to be like a crate of wine, what I receive normally in my apartment, I have to put in the cellar, with the same cord.
1:15
So we find exactly this material.
1:18
We burn the title, like a, a castle, uh, in a crate.
1:24
So this is to give the aspect of the book as an object, as a extraordinary gift, what you are sure is linked 1,000% to the wine.
