She reminds me of Elizabeth II,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>The trip concluded with a more informal and personal visit to Agriturismo Al Vigneto, a rural farm located about an hour outside the city.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There, the Princess took part in making fresh pasta and hosted an intimate lunch to thank locals for their hospitality.<\/p>\n<p>She sampled the dishes and appeared visibly moved by the setting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s so beautiful here. Thank you for having me. It\u2019s a wonderful view,\u201d she told her hosts during the outdoor gathering overlooking the valley.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n            let firebaseLoaded =
