::ammirabile::

you try to get to castello sonino but it's not to your avail, so you resort to the 3rd winery on the list azienda agricola ammirabile.
this is a small vineyard, family run as you expected it to be. but the hospitality you received from the owner grazia is warm and welcoming. you've the chance to enter the winery working area, seeing the barrel, the bottles and boxes, distiller all at one workplace. she explains with passion and patiently the wines (5 types they produced. aminirable only produced 5000 bottles yearly. you tried the re ammirabile 2012 red wine that made of 50% sangiovese and 50% merlot. it's nothing chianti as you don't like chianti wine in general. as such, this bottle was good and you got 2 bottles.
all wines and olive oil are made exclusively from their own grapes, grazia (the lady boss) even give you a small bottle of their own produced olive oil.
although the wineries are not as grand as those in france, you actually appreciate the down to earth aspects of the winery in tuscany, they're not intimidating and they're approachable. it's a chianti  tuscany dream come true now that you have the chance to try on the wine and olive oil. what else could you ask for? you're truly thankful for your God who provide you more than what you'd have ask for.
