RELEVANT INFORMATION
Type of tourist experience	Overflowing with old-world romance and handsome medieval architecture, this delightful little spot seems made for meandering along time-worn cobbled lanes framed by blushing bougainvillea, feasting on sublime Sangiovese local wine, and watching the world go by in picturesque piazza where the sweetness of doing nothing reigns supreme. Though consisting of little more than a single street, this off-the-radar Emilia Romagna village is a showcase of Spungone stone architecture and remarkable historical monuments, with everything from Medieval Rocca to fabulous places to sip superlative wine.
Length of tourist experience	From 3 hours to a week end.
