Lucca: Walls and Wine

Lucca Tunnel.JPG

Two things stood out to us in Lucca on our super short stop in this ancient town:  walls and wine.  Another example of inhabiting the past, the residents of Lucca have a gorgeous walking path atop the ancient wall that was once a fortress to defend their city.  We only wish we'd had time to bike around it!

​

Brunello de Montalcino, Banfi 2014:  hands down our favorite bottle of wine on the entire trip!  It could be that it was enjoyed at a great restaurant in Lucca's city square, it could be that it was enjoyed with the great friends we made on the trip, or it could be that it was just great!!  Still hoping to snag a bottle of it somewhere...
