Eating Italy 2019: Rome, Montalcino, Positano

[F.Daner]

Dennis, it was your tasting note you posted on the 17 Etna and reference to Rome that reminded me. Your trip thread was awesome and reminded me of how much terrific content is out there for travel.

When we can travel again returning to Italy is at the top of our list. This thread has links to other great threads and is just loaded with terrific info to plan a trip if Italy is in your future. Can’t help but reminisce about our trip last year and all that has happened since.

Thanks for resurrecting this thread! Makes me want to go back!!

From our apartment, on Liparita near the top 'o the hill. Never felt full consider each night we walked nearly 400 stairs to get home!

I did find some of Marisa Cuomo’s wines, she seems to be the go-to for Amalfi Coast wine. Her vineyards are crazy extreme, terraced slopes cut into the cliffs around Amalfi, which you can see as you approach the area by boat.

Fred- Definitely for drinking with seafood. Very lean, lively acidity. Maria Cuomo is the producer in the area. Good stuff. I didn’t seek it out since, but definitely a go-to when in the area!
