Promptly after breakfast today we drove out to a small family run winery nestled just below the quaint town of Montalcino. This place produces only 18,000 bottles of wine one Rosso and one Brunello, (read no cheap and pricey) The local oenologist, Maria, who is Spanish, gave us a great tour and a great wine tasting. She is very passionate about her job and even more so about making wine. Needless to say we are bringing some home with us, and what we are bringing is very special. Time to find some food to soak up the wine we just sampled and we are heading for a local hangout as suggested by Maria.
