Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you from Tuscany!

This year we have more reason than usual to be thankful, because:

- 2024 has been the year when we hosted the most repeat customers since we started our business;

- 2024 has been the year when we hosted the highest number of guests that found us thanks to a direct recommendation from either family members or friends that toured with us before;

- 2024 has been the year when both of us were able to find time around work to enroll in a wine tasting/somm class ( Deborah Larsen just received her diploma after passing the final test "with merit", well done Deb!).

It has been such a challenge to find the one photo that would sum up all the reasons why we're thankful, and we ended up choosing a photo taken this summer in Volterra in front of the local world champion gelato shop, because this moment meant a lot to us, including friendship, gratitude, and much more.

We know that this is possible only thanks to the ongoing support that we get from all of YOU, and we want to THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts.

Deb and Massi

Did you know that in Cortona it's possible to admire the Historic Etruscan Walls, including "The Mullioned Gate", dating back to the 400 AD?

From Piazza della Repubblica take the street Via Ghibellina until you get to the walls, and you'll find it!

And make sure to reward yourselves with a glass of wine after you walk back to the main piazza!

Have you ever visited this 12th century castle in the Val d'Orcia called Spedaletto?
Once offered shelter for pilgrims along the Via Francigena on the way to Rome. Today it is an agriturismo with a working Mulino (mill) nearby. We often shop there for quality pasta made using ancient grains in the most traditional way. They even have a pasta laboratory. Reservations required for a tour and lunch tasting.
