It's BLACKBERRY time!

F L A S H !!!

The blackberries are ripe! Yes! It’s true! The wild blackberries around Tenuta Collicello are ripe! The local Umbrian people (can’t talk for the rest of the Italians) don’t think much of blackberries. They use the same name for blackberries (that grow on vines with thorns) and mulberries (that grow on trees), but otherwise look similar and taste similar. The difference is that the blackberries have much more taste (and you don’t have to knock them out of trees to eat).

Gone blackberry eatin’!
