It all began when Sting and his wife Trudie were
looking for a summer home in Italy. They found a
run-down estate that formerly produced honey, olive
oil and wine. They bought the property, Il Palagio,
because of the view! Then they began a decade-long
project of bringing the estate, vineyard and olive
groves back to life.
Sting invited all of the neighbors and town locals
to the farm shop on the estate for a party to share their
plans for returning Il Palagio to its previous glory.
Now, every August, Sting holds a party for everyone
to celebrate and thank them for their support. They
eat, drink wine and of course he sings a few songs!
(I want to be on this invitation list!)
Sting has named the wine produced from the
vineyard after some of his hit songs … (Message in
a Bottle, Roxanne, Sister Moon) just to name a few.
Sting said, “A wine is like a song – it has a story
to tell.”
Sister Moon has been listed as one of the top picks
by Wine Spectator Magazine.
You can travel to Italy to check it out, or run to
your favorite wine store!
Try a few and message me on
your favorites!!
~ Cheers
