Thanks for your insighful comment. Honeymoon or not, it’s not too difficult to fall in love with Montalcino, its wines and foods!

I concur with your comments the wines of Poggio Antico are quite excellent. I also agree that the kitchen of Michele, Ana and Mario at Il Giglio is superb. My wife and I were married in Montalcino in 2007 and visited again in October 2011. We stayed at Il Giglio for a week prior to our wedding at Castella Di Velona. After eating at Il Giglio a few times we asked Ana to prepare a meal to celebrate our civil marriage with our immediate family. That meal overlooking the hills of Tuscany, was unforgettable. I urge anyone visiting the area to seek out this restaurant.

Best,
Marc
