Four days across the Langhe and Monferrato with sommelier-led vertical tastings, cellar visits and a food-and-wine pairing masterclass.
This is a serious wine week disguised as a country holiday. Every day you visit two producers - one historic house, one small grower - with private tastings led by an AIS-qualified sommelier who lives in the region.
Between visits you eat: a truffle-hunter's lunch in Alba, a long Piemontese Sunday at a Slow Food-affiliated osteria, and a nine-course tasting menu built to walk you through the appellation systems.
Where we taste.
Barolo - Vietti & a young grower
A morning at a historic Castiglione Falletto house followed by a small-production organic estate in La Morra.
Barbaresco - Produttori del Barbaresco
The legendary Barbaresco co-op: a walk through the single-vineyard crus and a vertical of Rabajà.
Monferrato - Barbera & Grignolino
Two cellars closer to the villa working with under-loved local varieties. Lunch at a producer's family table.
Alta Langa - sparkling
The high-altitude corner of the Langhe producing serious traditional-method sparkling wine. Cellar tour and 6-glass flight.
