Centuries-old wine windows in Florence put a novel spin on social distancing

Wine window

Le buchette del vino — or wine windows — are foot-high, dome-shaped holes in the thick, stone palazzi of Florence that six centuries ago were used to sell wine. Now, with the need for physical distancing, businesses are opening them up again and selling everything from glasses of Chianti to ice cream.
