Tuscany… sometimes it seems to consist primarily of centuries-old architecture and tall cypress trees; what a beautiful combination !

The Val d'Orcia or Valdorcia is a region of Tuscany, central Italy, which extends from the hills south of Siena to Monte Amiata. Its gentle, cultivated hills are occasionally broken by gullies and by picturesque towns and villages such as Pienza (rebuilt as an "ideal town" in the 15th century under the patronage of Pope Pius II), Radicofani (home to the notorious brigand-hero Ghino di Tacco) and Montalcino (the Brunello di Montalcino is counted among the most prestigious of Italian wines). Its landscape has been depicted in works of art from Renaissance painting to modern photography.
Within the Val d'Orcia is a strip of land following the Orcia river between the DOCG zones of Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. Here Sangiovese and Trebbiano-based wines are produced under the Orcia Denominazione di origine controllata (DOC) status.
The DOC red wine is composed of at least 60 percent Sangiovese with other local varieties, such as Abrusco, permitted to fill in the remainder of the blend. The dry white wine and Vin Santo style DOC wines are composed of at least 50 percent Trebbiano filled out with other local varieties. All grapes destined for DOC wine production are limited to a maximum harvest yield of 10 tonnes/hectare, with the finished wines required to have a minimum alcohol level of at least 12 percent
Viaggio nella meravigliosa Toscana nella sua magica campagna tra gli splendidi borghi e i paesaggi incantati. Ogni posto è uno spunto per lasciare appoggiato lo sguardo per ore. I cipressi nostri cari amici che ci hanno accompagnati in questo viaggio non ci hanno lasciati mai soli. In questo scatto il cielo incorniciato da formazioni nuvolose ha reso unica questa immagine. Il black and white credo che doni allo scatto più interesse e ho voluto accentuare le zone d'ombra per dare un impatto più forte. Anche in questo viaggio ho voluto usare solo la reflex senza nessun ausilio per essere più agile negli spostamenti.
