Very proud to have my wine in Luxembourg!

This is really something I like so much. My wine held by Paolo Montemerani, Buonconvento's Mayor, and the Ambassador of Italy to Luxembourg, the Ambassador of Luxembourg to Italy, and Letizia Cosci, cultural advisor and good friend, during his recent visit, in order to start a cultural exchange with Buonconvento.
The picture was sent to me with some words that touched me."Thank you for the important work that you do on the territory. Thanks to you and other producers, Buonconvento's panorama is enriched with more beauty".
(sorry for my bad English!).

New tasting locations

Thanks to my daughter Clara, these are just made today. There is a table overlooking the vineyard for tasting and a little room inside with kitchen and table. Can't wait to start using these special places! That covered thing is a ham from my parent's house in the country. Can't wait to start to slice it.
Beautiful spring days here. Sending XOX.

Happy Birthday to my house!!

Today my house is 442 years old!
This is what is carved in the cellar, 1573 AD (year of the Lord) 13 di Marzo (March 13th).
Celebrating!!

I am waiting for the winter to end...we are almost there..still cold wind though.
This morning I placed again a bench in my favourite and hidden place. The view from here is gorgeus. I like to spend some time in this retreat, overlooking at the vineyard.

Organizing the first yoga retreat in July at Resta with Cora is a real pleasure.
Please check and see if you are interested. I really hope that many others will follow.

Happy Woman's Day to all, I will celebrate soon with a mimosa drink!

The season started yesterday. What a great day. I started again to drink wine after over 40 days of "detox". I do this every year, starting on the 1st of January; it became a real practice and not only it is easy, but also necessary. Now my liver cells are all rejouvanited and ready for lovely wines to taste...have many bottles in row ready...
 It has been a great day also because I partecipated with Martin to a really beautiful wine event in San Quirico, My Wine. Thanks to the superb organization of the Orcia Doc Wine Consortium, all went very well and many buyers from all over the world partecipated. From Finland to Brazil to South Corea. So many interesting contacts.

And today another very positive day, I had lunch with Dick Mercer from www.experienceitaly.com. We have been known since few years, I appreciate very much his style and attention in chosing special situations for travellers. Give a look at their website if you can. We had lunch in San Quirico (again! I love this town) at my favourite restaurant, "Osenna". Great home made pici with "nana" sauce (duck).And with our small group joined Antonella Piredda, friend of mine above all, and excellent tour guide.
So it was a blend of friendship, work, wine, as I really enjoy.
Dick brought, as usually when he comes and we meet, a bottle of Sangiovese produced in California.
So interesting, of course different from ours, but with a great and full bouquet, very cherrish and fruity in general, charming. Martin behaved very well!

I am sorry for my bad English!
