Italian Journeys
with Isabella and Luigi Dusi

Luigi
Luigi,
born in San Remo, Italia, returned to his homeland in 1994. Although away
from Italy for many years he settled into the rhythmic life of medieval
Montalcino and set about building a new life, leaving behind a frenetic
business world – and bringing Isabella to live in Tuscany. Montalcino
is the home of Brunello and Luigi’s continuing exposure to vines and
wine production enhanced his already keen interest in the viticulture of
Italy. Luigi’s laid back style gives him the ability to pass on his
knowledge about the wines of Italy in an informative and fun way. His
cellar is stacked with wines from all over Italy about which he is adept
at explaining not only the sensorial aspects of colour, aroma and taste,
but also identification of the structure and complexity of the wine, as
well as production techniques and grape varieties. Luigi
is the administrator. He sorts out day to day events, confirming
appointments in advance and looks after the smooth running of your holiday.
He is usually last to bed; frequently
the last one in the piazza, sharing a glass of wine or a grappa with
guests. Holiday
Apartments is Luigi’s speciality. He manages all enquiries for holiday
apartments in the village or farmhouses in the vineyards surrounding
Montalcino. Apartments rent from Saturday to Saturday. If you
seek the place for the perfect holiday for one, two, three weeks or a
month, Montalcino is ideal. You’ll agree after reading Isabella’s
books and browsing the link to Montalcino.
