I’m headed to Italy in July. We start in Milan and end in Rome. We plan to spend some time in Tuscany. Anyone have any recommendations on wine tours or vineyards to visit?

Fattoria Poggerino in Radda in Chianti for a great experience and great wine from a smaller and biodynamic producer. The Antinori property in Chianti is impressive. Ettore Germano in the Piedmont for some great Barolo. Cantine Povero also in the Piedmont for larger operation but still family run. Scacciadiavoli in Montefalco. Tenuta Argentiera in Bolgheri if you are going to the Tuscan coast. Val delle Rose if you go to Grosseto.

I don’t know Tuscany or the producers that well and admit I’ve never been but suggest maybe the Brunello di Montalcino or Chianti Classico area if you’re looking for solid producers. Not sure how you plan on getting around but what I’ve done is plan around producers clustered in a certain area and hitting one place and having cabs take you between wineries, assuming you can find cabs there and you may not. It’s cheaper than a wine tour and you can go at your own pace and attention span

I am trying to practice a version of intuitive/mindful eating - honoring my body’s hunger cues and not sticking to a timeline or plan as to what and when to eat. But tbh years of “dieting” has screwed over my ability to recognize hunger cues. I suddenly realize my hunger after not eating for 10+ hours and then I’m ravenous and would just eat anything. Anyone dealt with this have any recommendations? TIA

What wine clubs are you guys members? Would love some recommendations.

Tried this Santorini retailing for $40. Very concentrated but can’t say I was blown away by it. Volcanic terroir dominates almost to the point of obscurity, and it had strong lemon notes, hints of quince, and sea salt. It clashed with Mexican food (hey I knew that beforehand but didn’t think it would clash THAT bad, and usually pair Mexican with Riesling or Gewürztraminer) but I’m going to Greece soon and wanted to drink Greek wine. I drank half at a BYOB, took the bottle home(cont’d)
