The Tuscany / Siena Province region


Everyone knows about Tuscany all around the world, and many words was spent about this wonderful Region.
Beautiful landscapes with grapeyards hills and olive oil standing on the wind: a genuine slow food culture, wine and olive oil of high quality production, full of therms and things to do and visit.
Tuscany is not only country: the history starts before romans with the 12 Etruscan towns (as the near Chiusi).
Centuries after centuries you can see a complex culture made by genuine lifestyle.
The Chiusi area
If you are wine lover you dont have to miss a wine and enogastronomic tour in Montepulciano, where is the Nobile wine. Many wine cellars. Will be nice to have a walk in this medioeval town: find wine cellars and try everyone wine!
will be happy to let you try their wine with some pecorin cheese or salami.
Don't miss it: umbrian border is just after Chiusi. Have a real taste on Città della Pieve or Trasimeno Lake!
Festivals in summer like: Montepulciano wine under stars, Trasimeno Blues, Umbria Jazz, food and wine festivals in the near medioeval towns.
