Ferenc Mate: A great author for the winter armchair traveler


It's the middle of winter, the time when I usually start to feel the itch to travel flare up. I have been thumbing through my books trying to find something to help me virtually visit Italy until I can be there in person. I found a great new author who actually has two books out describing his move to Tuscany (the hills of Tuscany) and then his aquistion and creation of a winery outside of Montalcino (A Vineyard in Tuscany: A Wine Lover's Dream). His name is Ferenc Mate and if his stories don't make you want to pack up your bags and go I honestly don't know what will.
