Today we took a vineyard tour that included a wine tasting meal at Castillo Di Verrazano, not far from where we are staying in Greve, in Chianti,
Italy. It was kind of an exciting day as it was the first day of the 2018 harvest, which consisted of the lowest elevation grapes, which are white grapes, used for Vin Santo wine.
OK, it's time for a small confession. I put a small pair of scissors in the car and pulled over on the way back up the hill to our apartment, while Deb, my accomplice, did a bit of early harvest, herself. These Sangiovese grapes were not destined for wine, but rather a bit of dessert after what I knew would be a small meal tonight.
We were both still not hungry enough for a big meal. Bruschetta, olives, and a bit of brie cheese (followed by grapes....shhhhh).
