More Paradise...

 Don and Cindy are joining us for both La Primavera and Grandi Alpi 2014. But that's not even enough, so they came early to enjoy more time in paradise. We've enjoyed riding around Monferrato with them, stopping for pranzo in one of our favorite places in Vignale, as you can see above.

In the afternoon we went off to visit new friends at Beccaria Vineyard. We wanted to set up some guided visits and tastings in nearby Ozzano, so Don & Cindy ended up being test clients for this experience.

They showed us the vines.

And Larry's favorite, the barrel room.

And finally, the tasting. A true family operation with wines not found or produced much further than 100 kilometers from here. At present, no exports to the USA either, so you'll have to come over and enjoy them right where they're made! Mille Grazie, especially to Silvia for her hard work explaining things in English. We hope to have details on how you can do you own visit here as part of our Piedmont Cycling Resort experience soon. They said they'll even come over and pick you up!
