Discover the Barolo land with us on a special wine day tour that starts from Turin and that will bring you across the splendid landscape of Piedmont region for an unrforgettable day.
The Barolo vineyard zone covers the parishes of Castiglione Falletto, Serralunga d'Alba and Barolo itself, and also spreads over into parts of Monforte d'Alba, Novello, La Morra, Verduno, Grinzane Cavour, Diano d'Alba, Cherasco and Roddi. The soils and mesoclimates vary slightly between these communes, creating subtle differences between the wines produced from their vineyards. The history of the Barolo dates back to circa 2500 years ago, with the men and women of Ligui Stazieli, who built the first rudimentary grape-growing structures. Later on in its history, the first admirers of its nectar were the Gauls, whose conquest of the territories beyond the Alps was motivated in part by their fondness for the wine produced here.
With this tour we'll let you have a glimpse of what this territory is all about.
