CHIANTICLASICO SO ITALY

摘要

Both the sun and the temperature were dropping on the small group of American wine writers visiting the Chianti Classico region in Italy. All had been to Italy before. And they're journalists. Their job is to not be astounded. Still, they were nearlymesmerized by the view.The thing was, in some ways, the view was not particularly unusual. They were near the bottom of a valley of vineyards, standing above a wood-fenced pen of all white Chianina cattle - a local breed that's one of the oldest on Earth. Above them, vineyards climbed in every direction, not steeply or in any kind of order.
