A world of wines – Tuscany in a bottle
From the golden days of Bacchus and as early as Plato, Aristotle and Lucretius, learned souls often dealt with the concept of wine and how tastings define our essence. In more modern times, two scholars even won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for their research on the senses of taste and smell, in 2004.

Sea Delights – From the Cinque Terre to Versilia
In a land with an overwhelming 7,500 km-long shoreline, it comes as no surprise that memories linked to the sea resonate strongly when reminiscing over a holiday in Italy. We jealously hold on to sensations and the mind wanders in search of that bluer-than-blue, infinite expanse of water, a mesmerising sequence of gulfs and coves, natural docking places and colourful hamlets perched high on a headland: this beauty is timeless.

The beauty of the Tuscany inland
One of the most loved regions in Italy, Tuscany awakens feelings of delight, with the charming harmonies of its landscapes and its deep-seated identity. It is easy to get lost among the sweet, rolling hills and its never-ending sceneries, the many colours of its flower fields and the pleasant rows of vineyards; still, Tuscany is on most people’s maps also because of its sublime food – certainly one of its best features.
