77. Greve










The following day was the worst of the trip. The idea was fine, but flawed execution. We took a bus to Greve in Chianti, the center of the chianti wine area. Most of the vineyards are spread out around here, so we thought we'd rent a bike in the town of Greve, then ride around and do a bit of winetasting. We stopped for a nice lunch at an outdoor pizzeria in town, then explored the town. It's a handsome town, but not particularly old. It's mostly a market town selling the wines of the region, and had a nice weekend market in the main square.
