Montepulciano in Tuscany 9th Sept

This morning we left our apartment in Soriano and headed up the autostrada to Tuscany . It was very foggy . Our first stop was Montepulciano and we wandered again up and up through very cute streets to a Panaramic view at the top,the fog was clearing. Went into an ancient wine cellar and had coffee in the piazza (sound familiar).Wanita had a taste of the famous Brunello wine.There was a really good art gallery here,  artist was guiliano censini.(google) .We took lots of photos and then drove to a lunch spot that was recommended at the gates of the nearby town of Montechiello. We found a fig tree and picked some. We then drove to our accomodation at Il borgo de Vescine halfway between Castellina  and Radda in Chianti arriving around 5 pm after briefly getting lost around Sienna and ending up in the middle of Sienna instead of bypassing it. Our accomodation had a complimentary wine tasting for guests which Wanita enjoyed. We had dinner the restaurant here and a bit of a late night.
