Spring in Montespertoli!
Spring comes into full swing at the end of March, beginning of April in Montespertoli, Tuscany where the grape vines begin to sprout, olive trees are pruned, pots of lemon trees move outdoors & lilies flower. Even when overcast, the countryside's gentle hills form a patchwork quilt of grassy hues, mossy shades & deep forest green. As the days get longer, the hills transform to a lush carpet of vegetation right up to the September vendemmia (harvest). We had the recent pleasure of spending time in Montespertoli with our talented colleagues tasting new vintages, looking over the cover crops planted between the vines & strolling along the olive groves.
