The Langa hills, home to noble reds
The Langa, which means “narrow strip of land”, is an area of wine hills and valleys between the River Tanaro and the Ligurian Apennines: thousands of hectares of vineyards and, all around, horizons capped by medieval hilltop villages with towers and castles at altitudes of up to 950 metres above sea level. The heart and soul of the area is the small town of Alba, famous all over the world for its white truffle, Tuber Magnatum Pico. The land here is ideal for the production of noble red wines with the Nebbiolo grape: meaning Barolo and Barbaresco.
Early in the morning we will meet at your hotel and go to the "homeland of the king of wines."
We will visit the historic Barbaresco winery, visit the old cellars and enjoy the famous cru of famous vineyards. After tasting, a tour of the panoramic sites and a visit to the Barbaresco Tower and a walk in the ancient village of Neive.
