Wine Tasting in Chianti

As you may remember from a couple of months ago, I went to Italy. We were in the Chianti region which is famous for their Chianti Classico wine. So of course we had to go wine tasting. The one picture was taken at a local restaurant called Machiavelli, named so due to its famous visitor Niccolo Machiavelli, who was an Italian historian, politician, and writer in the 16th century. Much wine was consumed there. The other picture was taken at an independent San Giovese vineyard called Pomona. San Giovese grapes are the kind of grapes used to make Chianti Classico wine. We had samplings of their wine and olive oil and got to take a tour with a brief history lesson. Now, about the page. The "wine tasting" diecut is available at Picture This. The label is Lawn Fawn. The glasses are Memory Box. And the paper is Scrapbook Customs.
