One of my favorite experiences from our trip to Italy was when we spent the day exploring the Tuscan countryside. We visited a bunch of medieval villages and two different olive oil and wine vineyards to test out the goods. It was so much fun! This River Island cape was the perfect cozy companion that day.
Since I took SO many photos that day, I’m splitting it up into two different posts. Today I wanted to share the wine and olive oil tastings we did at Sant Agnese Farm – this spot had the most incredible views of the countryside and the best Balsamic I’ve ever tasted in my entire life. It was wonderful on everything we tried, from potatoes to vanilla gelato.
In the US, I’m so used to watered down Balsamic that just slides off of anything you poor it on, but this vinegar was thicker – almost like a syrup. It was mind blowing. I highly recommend ordering some! I bought a bottle for myself, and a few for friends as holiday gifts. I also ordered some of their delicious truffle oil for good measure! Stay tuned for more photos from Italia…
