Comment from Philippa Burne
Chianti. I don’t know about you but I grew up in a household that loved the stuff and we always had the empty twine-covered bottles sitting around the house with candles shoved into them.
Being a little (a lot) older now, I finally understand where those bottles came from and why my parents loved the stuff so much. Chianti the wine comes from central Tuscany, an area between Florence and Siena called Chianti, filled with dreamy landscapes of gentle hills and idyllic farmhouses surrounded by vineyards.
