We have left San Gimignano behind.
Off to the Fattoria Poggerino.
Home to a small organic family run winery located in the heart of Chianti Province
There are also rooms to let if any of you need an escape to the Tuscan hillside
We got to experience a tour of the operations and then sat down in the most beautiful shady for some lunch



This is some of the organic wine that we had with lunch.
Our group liked their wine!

In the heart of every Italian town 
there stands a church
This is the Collegiate Church of the Assumption of Mary
Consecrated in year 1148
The church is famous for its largely
intact Fresco which dates from the 14 century
Up close and personal
Don't you find it interesting that the books are being hidden away?
