A vineyard in Tuscany

"In A Vineyard in Tuscany, we travel with the Mates - Candace, a painter, Ferenc, a writer - through the winding cypress-lined roads of Tuscany to the ancient hill-town of Montalcino, home of the fabled Brunello. Here, they buy a 13th-century friary on a hill surrounded by 60 acres of forest, olives, and potential vineyards." "From taming a runaway tractor to battling volcanic fermenting vats, Ferenc Mate takes us through the adventures and misadventures of renovating an 800-year-old house, planting 15 acres of vines, starting the winery, and, finally, la Vendemmia - the first harvest, followed by the thrill of wine-making. They learn from world-famous vintner neighbors like Angelo Gaja the secrets of how to grow the best grapes and make superb wines."--Jacket.
