Since most of the language "spoken" on this forum has a definitive accent, thought this research report from Boston, an area of the USA that also speaks with a discernible accent, would be appropriate.

We send a fair amount of mail to the US from two different post offices here in Lunigiana. In the past three months, three letters to the US containing checks have not arrived. One of our neighbors has had a similar experience mailing to GB.

We have a very small vineyard and produce wine for our own consumption. We would like to improve our wine by introducing some cabernet into the mix. Does anyone know where one might obtain some cabernet vines, either dry root or in containers.

It has been suggested that perhaps some directions would be helpful, DUH!Varano is about 10 minutes beyond Licciana Nardi on the road to Tavernelle. There is a parking area just below the church.

Tried the La Spezia train route initially, however, there is a lot of construction around the station rendering the finding of a parking place virtually impossible. Drove to Manarola and started there which worked out quite well. Thanks again for all the suggestions.Fred

Thanks for the info. Have been on their site, Googled maps and directions, etc. and just cannot find the place. On Google Earth I can see the course but "on the ground" cannot locate it. Their website has a lot of info except for a map showing how to find them. BTW, did I read that you are headed for San Francisco? I am a No. Californian and my dad was born and raised in SF.Fred
