Castello Di Montauto

We were so lucky to stay as guests of Cecchi at Castello di Montauto, one of the estates owned by the Cecchi family.  It was everything I every dreamed a Tuscan estate would be. High on a hillside the estate had a enchanting view of vineyards, the valley below and of the medieval hill town of San Gimingnano in the distance.  That day we ventured out to explore San Gimingnano.  We were not to be disappointed.  Al and our friend Doug both bought hats to complete their attire. We brought back sandwiches for dinner at the Costello and sipped on the delightful wines left for us by our hosts.  High on the hill there was a cool breeze.  We thoroughly enjoyed having the windows and doors open.  What a delightful evening in Tuscany.

The next morning we slept in late and awoke to an Italian breakfast set out for us by Sylvania.  Thank you so much for sending us off in such style Sylvania.  Our stay could not have been more wonderful.
