Monocle contributor Issabella Orlando takes us on a tour of Val d’Orcia, where heritage crops are cultivated with a deep respect for tradition, biodiversity and the land itself. Here, she meets the stewards of a region whose roots run deep and whose yields speak for themselves.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Adelmo Barlesi, designer e progettista, intervistato da Enrico Della Giovampaola, racconta il Parco Villa Trecci a Montepulciano. Immerso nel dolce paesaggio collinare della Val di Chiana e della Val d'Orcia il Parco, da lui realizzato per la moglie, la storica dell'arte Cinzia Sorlini, si snoda lungo un percorso che disegna diversi scenari tematici. Il giardino delle piante grigie, il boschetto, il roseto, la grande aiuola delle graminacee, il lago delle acquatiche con la palude, la limonaia, gli spazi verdi distesi interrotti da olivi secolari e cespugli dalle fioriture profumate: questi gli ambienti che si svelano al visitatore lungo il percorso di visita. Aperto al pubblico nel 2018, il Parco è all'avanguardia nel progetto agronomico e nella sua realizzazione, la cui forza trainante è l'ecologia, con un approccio progettuale a basso consumo idrico. Nel giardino sono riunite oltre quattrocento specie mediterranee aride, per un totale di decine di migliaia di piante, provenienti da altre aree del mondo dove si sperimentano condizioni climatiche analoghe e che adottano strategie simili contro il sole, la siccità e il freddo. Il risultato è un luogo esuberante, rigoglioso, ricco di colori e profumi. Parco Villa Trecci fa parte del network Grandi Giardini Italiani dal 2021.

After spending almost three years talking about my wonderful homeland, some of you might wonder how a one man band seems always able to find reasonably interesting topics. The process is a lot messier than I'd like but sometimes it borders sheer madness. This week, for example, I had scheduled a completely different episode but decided against it. I tossed the notes I had already taken and started staring at the map, looking for inspiration. A name immediately attracted my attention, a weird but auspicious name of a little town near Siena. I had been there years ago and found it very pretty but I had no idea it was hiding so many interesting things. This is why this week What's Up Tuscany will bring you to Buonconvento, what many consider one of Italy's prettiest villages and tell you everything there is to know about this small but very quirky hamlet.If you listen to the full episode you will learn how, for a hot minute, this town had all the eyes of Europe on it due to the mysterious death of an emperor and how, centuries ago, the famous writer Boccaccio immortalized forever the crazy tale of a cheeky and very unfaithful servant. Then I will walk you downtown to discover the secrets of the town hall, the funny clock tower that looks like a smaller replica of Siena's Torre del Mangia and why this Mediaeval town is so full of Liberty-style buildings, Italy's answer to Art Nouveau architecture. In the following chapter I will tell you about the outstanding museum that hosts some of Italy's greatest sacred art masterpieces and a smaller barn conversion that is dedicated to the life of regular farmers of the past. If you're into the spooky side of life, I will guide you to a beautiful villa on a nearby hill that, according to many locals, is haunted by the ghost of its owner.In the final chapters I'll tell you about a small pastry shop nearby that, since 1959, has become a must stop for sweets lovers everywhere. As Queen Elizabeth II was a great fan of their cookies, they have built quite a following overseas but some of their unique creations are so good that it's worth travelling there so that you can taste them out of the oven. Last but not least, I'll let you know about a very interesting day trip through the Orcia and Arbia Valleys with historic locomotives, an incredible hotel that was built from restoring an abandoned village and, at least as far as I'm concerned, one of the best restaurants around. While its name is odd, "The Crazy Count", the food they serve is out of this world, especially the local cheese. The Val d'Arbia is nowhere near as popular as some other parts of Tuscany but it has so much to offer. Think about going there next time you plan your next visit.Email: podcast@larno.itFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/larno.itTwitter: @arno_it / @WhatsupTuscanyLINKS TO SOURCES (ITALIAN ONLY)https://www.tuscanypeople.com/buonconvento-di-nome-e-di-fatto/https://www.finestresullarte.info/viaggi/buonconvento-luogo-felice-crete-senesihttps://www.tuscanysweetlife.com/province/provincia-siena/buonconvento/https://siviaggia.it/borghi/borgo-buonconvento-toscana/217877/https://www.ledolcezzedinanni.com/https://www.pieveasalti.it/https://www.trenonatura.terresiena.itinfo@visionedelmondo.it / +39 0577 48003BACKGROUND MUSICPipe Choir - Bom Bom Breakthrough (Instrumental)Incompetech - Leopard Print ElevatorWayne John Bradley - Pick You UpMike Chino - Calm and HarmonyWUFO - Hyde ParkPipe Choir - Gemini (Instrumental)Wayne John Bradley - Blues Rock Original InstrumentalAll released under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Licensehttps://soundcloud.com/pipe-choir-2/pipe-choir-bom-bom-breakthrough-creative-commons-instrumentalhttps://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1500077https://soundcloud.com/ayneohnradley/pick-you-up-slow-poprock-style-instrumental-creative-commonshttps://soundcloud.com/argofox/mike-chino-calm-and-harmonyhttps://soundcloud.com/argofox/wufo-hyde-parkhttps://freemusicarchive.org/music/Pipe_Choir/SGONS_Instrumentals/Pipe_Gemini_Instrumentalhttps://soundcloud.com/ayneohnradley/blues-rock-original-instrumentalcreative-commonshttp://www.pipechoir.com/

Una utile riflessione realizzata da Josep Eiarque su linkedin (link: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/i-7-peccati-capitali-nel-destination-management-josep-ejarque/). Interessante articolo de "L'internazionale" che riguarda la trasformazione di destinazioni turistiche in "non luoghi". Ora non sono più solo grandi città ma anche aree paesaggistiche ritenute impossibile da contaminare come la Val d'Orcia (link: https://www.internazionale.it/essenziale/notizie/alessandro-calvi/2023/06/23/val-d-orcia-turismo-di-massa?fbclid=IwAR2AXMZ60t1QQzDnHSdl1N3zrhcz8brgI8KP6R1oSmQVXvaNZaVMZTMWw6c).

Jornalista: Renata Araújo Tema: Um restaurante dentro de uma adega de vinhos.

The day after the savory dinner Paolo prepared for 12 of us (previous episode), we sat down in the recording studio and discussed his trajectory in life that let him to where he is today. What a travel-filled path it was, filled with cuisines from around the world that influenced his skills in the kitchen. Most Italians have it in their DNA to be able to whip up a tasty pasta with whatever is in the frigo, however Paolo chose to dive deeper into the culinary traditions that make the Italian cuisine a global favorite. He suffered through cheese tasting / cheese making courses and studied all phases of oenology / viniculture (vino!). To summarize Paolo's take on his profession... I first speak with people about a dinner or a food tour, and they become my client. I then give them a cooking class and prepare a meal, and they become my guest. After the meal and conversation, they become my friend, and this is La Dolce Vita. Kimberly and Paolo finally met in person last October in Val d'Orcia, Tuscany after a 4 year email friendship. To be able to spend a long and delicious weekend with Paolo on our home turf, and to record his story, was a special visit indeed.

Oggi conosciamo una perla della Val d'Orcia, in Toscana: San Quirico. La conosci? Trascrizione su www.podcastquattrostagioni.ch

This week the Wine Thieves head to Tuscany and more specifically to the DOCG of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, Italy's first DOCG and "the king of all wines" according to poet Francesco Redi. They foolishly consider rolling an empty barrel  600m up to the top of the medieval hilltop town of Montepulciano  (in the "annual Bravio delle Botti"), to take advantage of the sweeping views of the Val d'Orcia and Val di Chiana, the latter home to Chianina cattle and source of the legendary Bistecca alla Fiorentina. In this first of a 3-part series, we speak with  president, Andrea Rossi,  and vice-presidents, Susanna Crociani and Luca Tiberini, (also all producers) of the Consorzio Vino Nobile di Montepulciano to learn of the illustrious history of the region, its traditions that united a community under the sphere of Florentine influence,  grape varieties, and soils. Sommelier student alert: we also get a sneak peak at the imminent changes to come from this multi-faceted wine growing region, including a new cru system of sub-zones named after local medieval parishes, defined by elevation, aspect and soils.  Pour yourself a glass of this southern-Tuscan sangiovese (aka prugnolo gentile), discover the past, present and future of Vino Nobile di Montepulciano and let the heady aromas whisk you away to the historic hillsides of this classic Tuscan hilltop town. In partnership with the Consorzio Vino Nobile and the Toronto Office of the Italian Trade Commission. A campaign financed according to EU regulation no. 1308/2013

Since a June dinner in Val d’Orcia at Villa Pienza, I’ve been making a ricotta crumb cake at least once a week, during cooking classes and when we had friends over for dinner, trying out different combinations of flour, fruit and chocolate. Everyone was impressed when we were making it, but mostly when, at the end of a meal, we had a fat slice accompanied by an espresso or a little glass of iced limoncello: they always had some room left for a second serving.Now finally the recipe is on line, as it went straight into my cooking repertoire. And for all of you who made this cake with me during the cooking classes, a promise is a promise, now you have the recipe!In this episode, we explore the step by step recipe, the possible fillings for the cake and the importance of having a cooking repertoire. Which are the recipes that you would add in your cooking repertoire? share it with me via email or with a post or a story on Instagram using the hashtag #cookingwithanitalianaccent and tagging @julskitchen.

In this episode Monty Waldin meets Giovanni Mazzoni, manager at Podere Forte in the Orcia valley in Tuscany. Giovanni tells Monty about the origin of the estate, a 200-year-old “podere” that Pasquale Forte acquired in 1998 and developed as a biodynamic estate. Mazzoni talks about the biodiverse flora and fauna on the estate, its wheat production, Chianina cows, Cinta Senese pigs, and bees (among others!) which all contribute to a healthy vineyard ecosystem. Podere Forte produces Sangiovese-based wines, Petrucci, Petruccino, and Guardiavigna and its main market is Italy. Monty and Giovanni also go deep into technology for viticulture, such as the use of drones!

Una meravigliosa degustazione di vini in Toscana!Sono appena tornata dalla mia ultima visita alla nostra amata Toscana, e si, ogni volta che torno dalla Val d’Orcia e Valdichiana torno carica di emozioni che ti danno i colori, i sapori, l’accoglienza, l’essenza e le magnifiche tradizioni che le famiglie continuano a mantenere come se il tempo non fosse mai passato. Ho assistito al Palio dei Somari a Torrita di Siena, mangiato in luoghi incantevoli, e visitato alloggi in residenze d’epoca dove sono stata accolta come se fossi la loro figlia; a Chiusi mi hanno fatto sedere a tavola per far merenda con la torta di carota e mandorle fatta rigorosamente in casa, accompagnata da una mousse di yogurt. E il vino, il vino Rosso così amato da tanti, cosi curato e rispettato con sacralità. Ho avuto l’onore di parlare con Francesca, piacevole guida turistica di altissima competenza che mi racconta, con amore e passione, il suo territorio.

In 2018, the Harvard Art Museums are celebrating the Calderwood Courtyard, to honor the 500th anniversary of the site that inspired its design. The two-story arcade is a replica of the facade of the canon’s house of San Biagio in Montepulciano, Italy, an ecclesiastical complex designed in the early to mid-16th century by Renaissance architect Antonio da Sangallo the Elder. Situated on a clearing overlooking the Val d’Orcia and Valdichiana Valleys, the San Biagio complex is a popular attraction for visitors. Experience it virtually from the Harvard Art Museums’ Calderwood Courtyard, a near exact replica of the canon’s house of San Biagio.

In this episode, Monty Waldin meets Carlo Franchetti, Marketing Manager of Tenuta di Trinoro in Val d’Orcia. Tenuta di Trinoro is part of the Azienda Vini Franchetti with estates also in Sicily.
