Legend tells that God created the Provence
with all the good things that were left over from the creation of the world.
I had the pleasure of visiting this country in 1985,
but I’ve still perfectly clear in my eyes
the colorful landscape, the slow pace of life, the smells of spices,
fields of lavender and … tenderloin with green pepper
better than I’ve never eaten in my life and
this pan of vegetables , fragrant and
really yummy.

Recommended wine:
Antinori Tormaresca Torcicoda Salento
Primitivo IGT Magnum
a wine warm, rich and full-bodied.
