Tasting lunch at a farmhouse with winery

A family-run farmhouse nestled in the hills, just a few minutes from Alba. Here, time still follows the rhythm of the countryside, and hospitality is made of simple, genuine gestures.
You’ll enjoy lunch indoors or outdoors, with a view over the hills, featuring:

  • a board of local cured meats and cheeses

  • classic agnolotti
  • homemade dessert
    All paired with a tasting of 3 estate-produced wines.

Visit and tasting of Langhe hazelnuts

An experience dedicated to one of the area’s signature products: the Nocciola Tonda Gentile Trilobata.
The visit starts in the hazelnut grove and continues in the production facility, revealing the secrets of this Piedmontese excellence, ending with a final tasting:

  • sweet tastings: hazelnuts, bread and spreads, hazelnut cake
  • savory tastings: salted hazelnuts and small bites
    All accompanied by a glass of local wine.

Overnight stay at a panoramic farmhouse in the Langhe

Traditional Piedmontese dinner at the farmhouse
In the heart of the Langhe, a dinner that truly tells the story of the land.
The menu follows seasonality and Piedmontese tradition, from appetizer to dessert, prepared with ingredients partly grown on the farm and partly selected from local producers.
The house wines pair with each course, completing a convivial and authentic experience to enjoy at a slow pace.

Visit and tasting at a small Langhe winery

A small winery tucked among the vineyards, run by a young couple who chose a personal path in winemaking, far from big numbers.
During the visit, they’ll share their project and their daily work in the vineyard and cellar, and answer your questions with genuine passion.

The experience ends with a convivial tasting of 3 wines – sparkling wine, Langhe Arneis DOC, and Barbera d’Alba Superiore DOC – paired with boards of cured meats and cheeses, polenta crostini, and focaccia.
To complete the lunch, a plate of tajarin with local black truffle and a slice of hazelnut cake.
