- Days 13 & 14 -
If there is a heaven on earth, this is it!
We were captivated by the beauty of the rolling hills, lush vineyards and the beauty of the Umbrian countryside. The Altarocca Wine Resort and these stunning views would be ours for the next two days. We thought we were in heaven - it is so beautiful.
Altarocca produces fabulous wines, both red and white, all organic. Our evening began with a wine tasting and then a fabulous group dinner. Our second day, some of us ventured off to the town of Orvieto, while others took advantage of the spa services. In Orvieto, we rode the funicular to the upper section of town, toured the cathedral, shopped the many pottery stores, and enjoyed a fruity gelato. By lunch time we were back at the wine resort for drinks and a meal by the pool. Later in the day we rounded up a few players for a fun game of Bocce. Dinner tonight was a delicious poolside BBQ. Entertainment was provided by two acoustic guitarists who played some really good music. There were sing-a-longs and dancing - a great time was had by all!
