We are off next week for our annual Truffle Trip to the gorgeous and unknown eastern county of Le Marche in central Italy. The coastline is charming, with azure blue water and sandy beaches reminiscent of the Caribbean, and delightful small towns inside Roman walls and with Baroque town centres. However, we head west, into the emerald green hills and lower mountains of the Montefeltro, with UNESCO World Heritage Site Urbino as our base. From there, we launch 72 hours or wall-to-wall indulgence. We eat meals infused with fresh black and white truffles, visit wineries for tastings and walk out with a local truffle hunter and his dogs.
