Siena and San Gimignano
The medieval fortified towns of Tuscany
Convents, castles, wineries which seem XVIII century theatres. All this you find driving to Siena, before visiting this unbelievable stone town. Driving on the way to Siena, you see the towers on the hill of San Gimignano and you immediately sense the taste of Vernaccia. Arriving in Siena or Monteriggioni, walking through the old walled town's portals, you imagine the strong, full-bodied wines produced in the surrounding countryside.
