Okay everyone here is the preview of our trip. Please stay tuned for restaurant reviews and wine tasting notes to come. If you have any restaurant or vineyard recommendations please comment and we will see what we can fit in our busy vacation schedule!
Cities we will be staying in are: Venice, Lugano/Como, Florence, Rome, and Barcelona (New York layover on the way back)
First on the wine tour is Prosecco Wine Country:
This road winds around through the hills cultivated with vineyards between Conegliano, Vittorio Veneto and Valdobbiadene. A gentle landscape composed of grapes and huts, farming towns and historical cities, age-old parish churches and castles, a land that humans have shaped over the centuries, making it one of the prettiest corners of Italy.
Como at night:
In Florence we will drive out in to the heart of Tuscany to Castello Banfi Estate (http://www.castellobanfi.com/)
Castello Banfi is a family-owned vineyard estate and winery in the Brunello region of Tuscany. Together with its sister estates in Piedmont, Vigne Regali and Principessa Gavi, it has become recognized the world over for its dedication to excellence and sparking a renaissance in the art of Italian winemaking.
In Rome we will find our way through tasting rooms:
In Barcelona we are looking forward to tapas!
on the way back and during a short layover in NYC we will visit the restaurant Rouge Tomate (http://www.rougetomatenyc.com/)
Stay Tuned for more to come! Ciao Ciao!
