Product Description
THIS DVD FEATURES ALL SIX 26-MINUTE EPISODES. This PBS documentary series is an unprecedented journey into the vineyards, workshops, kitchens, and homes of the Tuscan people. Each 26-minute episode of "Inside the Tuscan Hills" will take you deep into the rich culture of rural Tuscany, a place where ancient traditions have never disappeared. You will meet master chefs, shoemakers, mosaic artists, ceramic painters, coppersmiths and many others. Chefs open their kitchen doors and show us the secrets of hand-rolled pasta, wine-bathed steak, succulent pork, and many other mouth-watering Tuscan dishes. Highlights include: A 700 year-old cross-bow contest held in Renaissance costumes. A visit to the bubbling hot-springs of Saturnia - including the glamour of its private spa and the wild beauty of the public pools. A blessing of the fields that melds pagan beliefs with Christian rituals. The traditional wine harvest at a castle in Chianti.

 Inside the Tuscan Hills October 24, 2008
Fast service. Excellent DVD. Brings back a lot of memories. Wish I would have bought it before we went to Tuscany. Lots of good ideas.
Makes me want to go there! August 24, 2008
This videos is really well done. I enjoyed the format and photography. It is very interesting and has some
good information.
My only quibble is that it is too short!! Which isn't to say that it is actually short, its just so enjoyable,
you'd wish it would go for another hour or so.
And yes, the hostess is both beautiful and charming.
I just think its a very enjoyable DVD and makes me want to pack my bags and go there.
I definitely recommend this DVD!!

Firstly the DVD sound & picture is of high quality.The presenter, Camille I think is very friendly.I enjoyed absolutly everything on this DVD,from picking grapes in Chiati to restaurants, making knives with horn handles,pots,cuisine, preserved meats, jewellery, making shoes, Oh! yes one of the reason I would like to go to Italy is to purchase hand crafted Italian shoes, & of course a silky tie, the list is endless.The Italian people are vey friendly.One gets to know the cultural activities as well.I also enjoyed the beautiful Italian castles and scenery and background information on various cities.there are also recommendations on the best places to stay.It's a pity my wife want ot visit Paris first before visiting this enchanting place.
Wonderful travelogue December 27, 2007
Purchased this DVD as a precursor to vacationing in Tuscany. The material is very nicely presented and very educational as well as entertaining! Camille has a style about her that is wonderfully comfortable and you feel like you are there with her.
The DVD presents Tuscany in a very flattering way, taking you throughout the region and visiting small towns as well as some of the larger ones. All in all I thought this was well worth the price.

Fabulous. We were just their in September 2007 and it brought back so many great memories and did an great job covering the territory from the perspective of the craftsmen of Tuscany, from artists to chefs.
