This is an inspiring, beautifully written true story of a Briton who loves Italy and who has set down roots there. Finding and buying a piece of abandoned land with a derelict house in the beautiful Sabine Hills northeast of Rome, he turns it into a successful property--planting a vineyard, and learning (already in middle age)-- to produce respectable wines in a part of Italy that had never produced any before. Featuring information about aspects of Italian rural life an of Italian society, Fraser explains about growing grapes and making wine, the frustrations of operating under the Italian bureaucracy and its legislation, peasant conservatism, and his struggle to introduce more modern ways.
