We learned a lot and tasted some fabulous wines on this tour to three local winemakers in the Barolo area. Our personal guide Alessio knew a lot about the different grapes grown in the area and how the soil in the different vinyards gives the specific taste of the wines. Absolutely reccomended!

This experience goes well beyond winery visits. Alessio made sure we truly understood the region during our half day tour. It wasn't just about going to one winery in Morro and one in Seralunga (both excellent with welcoming, knowledgeable guides). By taking the time to examine the topography from each town viewing the other, we were better able to understand the impact of terroir on the wines. At one winery, we were able to look at the specific vineyards during the tasting and directly connect how different exposures and elevations impacted the wines. At the other, we could see the soil composition through plexiglass when descending to the winery from the tasting room. If you have any interest in wines from this area, please do not miss this experience.I’m in the wine industry (U.S.) but I still learned a lot from Alessio!

I’m in the wine industry (U.S.) but I still learned a lot from Alessio! At my request, he took me to a couple very small, family-owned wineries in Barolo and one in Barbaresco. It was a memorable experience to have the family owners share their stories and wine us personally. Alessio speaks English very well and communicated often before the trip to ensure he set up just the right experience for me. Since he is a winemaker in Barolo he offers some unique and valuable insights. Highly recommend!!We've organized a tailor made tour, easy communication by email.

We've organized a tailor made tour, easy communication by email. We've seen the wonderful village of Barbaresco and Barolo, amazing landscape and history, then we've visited 3 wineries: all of them were very informative and well organized. Alex is a young but very talented winemaker of the area and with a deep knowledge of the wines and the area of Barolo and Barbaresco. The restaurant arranged for us was absolutely fantastic, the true Piedmont style. I highly recommend this wonderful tour for people like us that are staying in Alba for few days, it's the only way to know exactly the tradition of the region and wines.Consiglio la visita guidata al castello di Barolo, con guida eccellente e al Castello di Serralunga con panorami stupendi nell'anfiteatro di vigneti
