Yes, this is where we stayed. It is as good as it looks!
We stayed in a small farm house for five days at Tenuta di Spannocchia, a centuries old agricultural estate located in central Tuscany near Siena. It is now an organic farm, educational and conservation organization and center for art and culture where workshops are held on all number of things. You can also just stay there which is what we did. We slept late, read a lot and traveled to nearby hill towns in the afternoons, usually stopping for dinner on the way back. On our last night we cooked at home drinking the wine made on the thousand acres of land that comprises this splendid place.

Wow, hillbillies no more!
Multo bene...! (that's wrong of course but..)
Wonderful shots for "take me back to..." reflections!
For us too.
Wow, what a beautiful and exotic location! I can almost taste the wine, thanks to your wonderful array of photos. It looks so quiet and serene. I am relaxed, just looking at them.
Hi Sylvia, glad I can offer some sense of calm. Your blog is exciting every day seeing Alden engage with the Maine landscape and cousins and learning the word NO in two languages! Looks busy and really fun. Sorry I missed seeing you this time around.
