Pre-Owned A Vineyard in Tuscany: Illustrated Edition (Paperback) 0920256856 9780920256855

In this humorous, poignant narrative, named a New York Times Notable Book, Ferenc M t chronicles unbelievable adventures in the most romantic region on Earth: Tuscany. Ferenc and his wife Candace pursue their dream by transforming an abandoned thirteenth-century friary and 70 acres of hills and waterfalls into an internationally acclaimed winery, producing one of the world's great wines--Brunello di Montalcino. Not only do they plant fifteen acres of vines, discover an Etruscan city buried in their woods, and uncover wine-making secrets from master vintner (and neighbor) Angelo Gaja, but they relish the joys of a new life, far from the one they left behind. This updated edition includes 16 pages of color photographs of the M t restoration project, winery, and vineyards.
