Tirano, Oct 2007
I took so many great pictures during our visit to the Sertoli Salis winery in Tirano (Valtellina) that I couldn't use them all even in three pages, so here they are. Some are fuzzygraphs because I did not want to use flash on the interior frescoes, but I've included them anyway to give you at least a fuzzy idea what they look like. also see Valtellina: lunch, palazzo, wine Click on a thumbnail below to see a larger version; use your browser's back button to return to this page.
