I go there almost every year .... Is one of my favorite autumn festivals because Montone is a beautiful medieval village, and during this holiday becomes even more impressive, illuminated by torches ... You eat the best of the Umbria caldarroste and drinking "Canaiolo "A really good sweet wine. Not to be missed!
Beautiful festival, the atmosphere of other times ... shame the weather ... hopefully next year
