Wine tasting near orvieto
It was hard to leave Florence. But I guess Rick Steves' Tours understands this so they make it a bit easier with a wee taste of wine - or rather, a stop taken en route from Florence to Rome for some wine sampling.
It was absolutely marvelous, set in a breathtakingly beautiful location. It was something I would never have felt confident arranging myself, not even if I had a traveling companion, so thank you Rick Steves' Tours!
We sampled wine, had a bit of a snack and learned a great deal about Italian wine and olive oil industry. Our hostess, Cecilia, and co-owner of the local winery was so bubbly and interesting. Such fun! (And she has an adorable dog as well.)
