Excerpt from "The Dog Who Ate the Truffle" (page 235)

"This charming, well-preserved medieval hill town is a few miles north of Umbertide. A stone wall encloses several hundred ancient houses, a few shops and restaurants, three churches, a post office, a museum, a park, a piazza, a bar, and a gelateria that make up the quaint village. The panoramic views looking down into the valley are stupendous. Montone can be seen in less than half an hour, but staying for dinner or attending one if its festivals makes it well worth the trip."
