Description
I was treated to this site every day on my walk to and from my B&B in Riomaggiore Italy to the train station. It was often in deep shade, except for late this one afternoon. There was something about the house that so attracted me and intrigued me. These green hillsides are part of the vineyards of the Cinque Terre. Winemaking has been important to the formation and growth of the Cinque Terre villages throughout their history. The incredible terracing which defines the coastline surrounding the towns was created over the course of a thousand years to create space to place the vines. It's called 'heroic winemaking' because of the back-breaking effort that goes into each and every bottle of wine made in the Cinque Terre. When you hike the region and reach the top of a steep climb and you are panting from the climb, you look to the side and you see vineyards!
