In Ripatransone there is a place where the wind never stops blowing: Piazza XX Settembre. Perpetually restless, he blows expanding into the adjacent squares. The reason for so much restlessness is the unrequited expectation of a friend. Legend has it that it was in this square that the Wind met the Devil and suggested that they go and drink a glass of Marche IGT Rosso together. The Devil agreed, but told the Wind that he would have to take care of something in the Town Hall first. Business that never ended, the Devil was so happy at the Palace. And it is for this reason that the Wind, in vain, still awaits him today for that suspended toast.
