day 12

thursday 20 may 2010 montalcino

the other life-changing experience this holiday, in addition to pasta fresca fatta di casa, was brunello wine from montalcino. oh brunello, where have you been all my life??? and it was going for a song in the many enotecas in montalcino, complete with complementary munchies. be still, my heart. so we sipped our way through montalcino, sampling (what seemed like) every year and vineyard and picked up a few choice bottles to bring home. i am brunello mad at the moment and it's reason enough to make a return visit.

 snigger. the things you see.

like neeps. teeheeehee!
ps love the mini decanter at the spout. too cute!
