Day Six

Yesterday we left earlyish, on a beautiful day, to Spoleto. Imo and I walked up the hill to meet Mum who had been at the post office. More vines!       We then went to a vineyard in San Marco, owned by the Antonelli family. We were       given a great tour by Wendy, an Australian lady who runs the vineyard’s cooking school, and whose grandparents lived in the same town in rural Victoria, Australia (Bendigo) as my Mum’s grandparents, it turned out.     A wine tasting followed the tour. Mum bought a few, including a delicious Sagrantino (the Umbrian grape) passito, a delicious, viscous dessert wine.   Nearby were two houses bought recently by American acquaintances of Beverley’s to restore – we had a good peek around.
