I created A Travel for Taste on the premise that travel and food bring people together and promote cross-cultural understanding. Toward the same end, I support all those working for equality to eliminate the institutionalized racism experienced by black citizens in the USA. I see you and hear you. I am with you. This is a pivotal time in history. What we do now sets the tone for our future. Let us listen to one another and come to understand each other as human beings.

A visit to the best winery of the trip: little Santa Giulia in Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy. In addition to the DOCG brunello, their IGT rosso was the best - not to mention the homemade pasta with meat ragu sauce and top-notch local pecorino and the farm's meat specialties, capicola, prosciutto and lombo.
My second trip to beautiful Tuscany, namely, Fattoria di Corsignano agriturismo near Siena, Italy. Wonderful weather, great wine and food and fantastic hospitality. There is truly no place like it on earth!
Recipe and instructional how-to tutorial for authentic Tuscan ribollita, a hearty winter soup thickened with bread. I got the recipe straight from an Italian chef, so you know it's good!
Cheese Importers in Longmont, Colorado, was a surprisingly wonderful European experience, smack in the middle of the northern Front Range! In addition to a huge selection of local and imported cheeses, you can have lunch at the bistro or a drink at the bar. Worth every effort to get there from Denver!
