Travel Photo Friday

Welcome to our third edition of Travel Photo Friday!

This month Linda of Milanese Masala, submitted photos involving three of my favorite things. 

Italy, Wine and Nutella.  How did I get so lucky?

Linda lives in Milan, Italy and blogs about food, life, travel, music and my favorite of late...calcio, Italian soccer. She has the sexiest photos of the players on her blog.  Sweaty, sexy, photos.  Ahhhh.  Yes. 

Oh, scusi.  Mi dispiace.  Lost my mind there for a minute.

Ok, back to these photos.  Read Linda's description of the photos below.

"These were taken last fall in the gorgeous Monferrato area of Piedmont. It's an area famous for wines like Barbera and Grignolino but hazelnuts also reign supreme. Yummy Nutella is a regional product.

We had lunch at a great B&B called La Quercia Rossa and spent the rest of the afternoon wandering around the owner's vineyard's and chestnut groves. Their dog was even our impromptu guide, showing us around and playing with the kids. As you can see, the vineyard was at its most beautiful. The colours were breathtaking, as if the hills were on fire. We had a wonderful day and I just wanted to share it with you and your readers."

 

Linda, your photos are stunning and beautiful.  The orange, yellow, amber and green are so strikingly different from what I am used to in Italy.  I am familiar with beautiful pictures of Tuscany and the Chianti area with lush green foliage.  It is so nice to finally see where one of my favorite wines (Barbera) and Nutella are created.

 

Thanks for participating!! And for sharing your photos, your story and the info on the lovely B&B with us!
