Who wants to go to Italy
and stay at Sting’s Tuscany
Estate and Vineyard?
You can rent out the
entire estate, main house,
guesthouses and grounds
for up to 500 people! When
I checked on the price, it
appears to be a case of, if
you have to ask, you can’t
afford it!
It all began when Sting Expires 9/30/21.
and his wife Trudie were looking for a summer home in Italy.
They found a run-down estate that formerly produced honey, State Licensed & Insured
olive oil and wine. They bought the property, Il Palagio, Serving Palm Beach County CPC # 1457468 • LPG#30099
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
