We hadn't booked and it was almost full, so the waiter asked if we minded sitting outside. What, on the terrace, in the sunshine, overlooking the vineyard ? Oh well, if we must. We shared a goat's cheese mousse of cauliflower puree infused with truffle oil, and a glass of Pinot Grigio which we'd tasted earlier at the cellar door; followed by steak, mash and good gravy for me and spatchcock chicken with gnocchi for him, washed down with a Pinot which we'd also sampled earlier. We shared a warm chocolate pudding with vanilla pod ice cream. Montalto is very highly thought of locally, and justifiably so. It's gorgeous, and like so many vineyards, extremely good value for money. Approved. DM Dec 2005
