Offida, the accent is on the "i" as "wine." Do you understand sporgendoti the railing behind the apse of the church of Santa Maria della Rocca thousand years, that this is a divine place: the sanctity of the shadows of this monolith of spirituality, just pierced by small arcades dwarfs, nicely minimal, and the lightness of the vineyards clinging to the slopes, down there.
The down-and-white vertical cliff, a limestone wall on which leaches the honeyed light of the afternoon Offida.
A city that exudes a grandeur that seems just passed: the current population is just over half of the fifties.
It remains the glory, in the vast square where you can admire the Town Hall, an antiphon of brick town of Tuscany interior.
In the silence of the streets of downtown just bogged down with some effort you can hear the noises of the irons and the screams of the wounded who were in these parts daily at the time of the wars against Ascoli Still, the Guelphs against Ghibellines slew as calves forget the wonders around.
A glass of garrulous Pecorino - white DOC Offida - or polpacciuto Rosso Piceno to settle any dispute, perhaps generous to the tables of these places.
