Langhe – Piedmont lies in north-western Italy, where carefully cultivated hills produce some of the country’s most celebrated wines. Medieval villages and castles punctuate a landscape shaped by viticulture.
Experiencing the region
Private cellar visits can focus on Barolo and Barbaresco, while seasonal truffles and Piedmontese cooking make food equally important to the experience.
Planning your stay
The region rewards slow driving, long lunches and a small number of excellent producers rather than a packed tasting schedule. Turin and Milan provide useful gateways.
