Tuscany

Tuscany is that magical land in Italy where the hillsides are covered in vineyards and olive groves and the hill tops are crowned with castles and villas.In real life, Tuscany measures up to its reputation quite well. There are plenty of olive groves and plenty of vineyards and plenty of stunning scenery. The wine from the Chianti and Montepulciano and Montalcino regions are as good as any to be found in Europe. (Stay away from the bottles in the woven baskets though.) The hill top villages are all disgustingly old...dating back to Roman times or before. All in all, it would be a beautify place to have a home.
