CHIANTI Region & The Hilltown of Piensa

While in Montepulciano Kathy & I hired a tour guide and visited the surrounding countryside including a few vineyards & wineries in the Chianti Region. We were actually staying in Montpulciano at the time but hired a van for a tour of the countryside!

Looking into the town square of Piensa. It was actually on the cold side but we did find a small cafe that overlooked the valley. The red canopy was the 1st place we stopped so that I could draw a sketch of the church across the town square.
