An Epic wine tour in Piemonte
Perhaps you are familiair with the cities of Torino, Novara, Alba, Asti… Beautiful cities in Piemonte! But Piemonte has more to offer than its cities: it is the home region of Italy’s most important wine: Barolo DOCG, King of the wine! And apart from Barolo there is much more: regions like the Langhe, Monferrato, Roero, Dogliani, Colli Tortonesi, Alto Piemonte. All these have interesting wines, many indigenous grapes and much more. This is the reason why it is so interesting to discover Piemonte: it is Italy’s most important and most interesting wine region. The Piemontese gastronomy is world famous and for a good reason, not for the least because of the truffles in autumn!
A Wine Tour in Piemonte is not only about sampling and enjoying its wines, but it is also about the pleasures of learning about authentic family companies, new grape varieties, tastes, culture, Slow Food (also Piemonte!), and Piemonte’s wonderful landscape. It is always a pleasure to introduce visitors to a mix of well known and completely unknown places!
