Janet, USAI want you to know how very much our group enjoyed the Tuscan winery and lunch tour you organized. Every winery was different and had something special and unique to add to our education and experience of wines in Tuscany. We particularly loved having Valentina as our guide. Thank you again for creating an experience none of us will ever forget.
