When you ask my Uncle David what his favorite wine is he will tell you (at least I think!) that it is Orvieto Classico, a smooth white wine that just makes you smile when you sip it. Imagine his jealousy to know that I recently traveled to the quaint town of Orvieto to see for myself if the town holds a candle to the fabulous wine it exports.

| A little wine for the train home, cork broke, no problem, apparently we are all former girl scouts. |
