What you can expect

The Langhe hills are UNESCO-listed for a reason — nowhere else in the world produces Barolo, the king of Italian wines.

Your day starts in Alba, one of Italy's most celebrated food towns — birthplace of Nutella, capital of the white truffle. With around 2 hours of free time, wander the medieval streets, step into artisan food boutiques, and choose your own lunch — from rustic trattorias to refined Piedmontese cuisine.

In the afternoon, a family-run winery opens its cellar doors to your group. Walk through the wine cellar where the bottles age, then sit down for a guided tasting of up to 7 wines — including Barolo — with the producers who made them. Every glass comes with a storey, told by the people behind it.

The day ends at Grinzane Cavour Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. From the terrace, sweeping views stretch across the vineyards that gave birth to Barolo — the same landscape you've been tasting all afternoon.

On Tuesdays the castle is closed — your guide will take you to La Morra or Barbaresco instead, two of the most spectacular viewpoints in the Langhe.

Private air-conditioned transport and an expert English-speaking guide are included throughout the day. Maximum 19 guests. Return to Milan by early evening.
