Drinking wine

For those who love to eat well, an off-season stay in a villa in Tuscany is an especially great idea during September as you can not only avail of the spoils of the harvest season, but you can also enjoy summer-like conditions and smaller tourist crowds – the best of both worlds! Not only will a trip at this time of the year mean that hearty autumn dishes will be served all over and all sorts of delicious things will be freshly harvested but it is also when many food festivals are held all across Italy and especially all across Tuscany.
