Oh, Harvest Season is upon us! And that means wine

Oh, Harvest Season is upon us! And that means wine! 🍇 🍷
Sangiovese wine in Tuscany is special for several reasons:

1. **Varietal**: Sangiovese is the primary grape variety used in many of Tuscany's renowned wines, such as Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. It's known for its vibrant red fruit flavors and balanced acidity.

2. **Terroir**: Tuscany's unique terroir, characterized by its hilly landscapes and diverse soil types, imparts distinct characteristics to Sangiovese grapes. This results in a wide range of flavors and styles across the region.

3. **Aging Potential**: Some Sangiovese-based wines from Tuscany, like Brunello di Montalcino, have exceptional aging potential. They can evolve and improve in flavor complexity over decades.

4. **Food-Friendly**: Sangiovese wines often pair exceptionally well with Italian cuisine, making them versatile and popular choices for pairing with dishes like pasta, risotto, and grilled meats.

5. **Cultural Significance**: Sangiovese wines are deeply woven into the cultural fabric of Tuscany, with a rich history dating back centuries. They are a symbol of the region's winemaking heritage and craftsmanship.

6. **Diversity**: Tuscany produces Sangiovese wines in various styles, from the approachable Chianti to the more robust Brunello. This diversity caters to a wide range of preferences among wine enthusiasts.

7. **Sustainability**: Many Tuscan winemakers are dedicated to sustainable and organic farming practices, preserving the environment and the quality of Sangiovese grapes.

Overall, Sangiovese wine in Tuscany is special due to its unique characteristics, strong ties to the region's culture, and its ability to produce wines that delight both novice and experienced wine connoisseurs.
We can’t wait to visit one our favorites, @fattoriatalosa , with our group next month!

What does it mean to be FREE? What does it feel li

What does it mean to be FREE?
What does it feel like to place a blank sheet of paper before you and design your own life path?
What have you been called to BE, to do, to create?
And do you take time to give the love that you so generously give to everyone else to YOU once in a while?

After a period of healing, which I likely will continue to experience for a long time to come, learning about betrayal trauma and how it can impact every element of your life, which it has for me, has also brought deep clarity;

Life is precious.
Every moment is a gift to be wasted or greeted with joy and grace.
Being a victim to anything or anyone is a waste of precious mental energy and gives power to others.
Sometimes the beautiful views are only rewarded because of the storms and steep climbs to get there.
YOU are and will always be the greatest love of your own life; Treat her with love and kindness, because she’s the one who will always see you through.

I look forward to this fall, when I will have the opportunity to explore more of my beloved region of Tuscany, lead another retreat with a special group of women, do some writing and research on a cliff overlooking the breathtaking Amalfi Coast, and allow myself time and space to continue healing and planning for the future and all of the amazing programs we have to serve you through Retreat to Tuscany.

My heart is breaking for others around the world who are suffering in ways unimaginable to me, my friends and clients deeply affected by the destruction in Hawaii, and others much less privileged. Perspective is the word that lands for me when I think about my daily challenges.

Take a moment to count your blessings today. I know I am. 🙏🏻
