Day 2 – Alba, the Truffle Fair and Barbaresco Hills

Breakfast.

Transfer to Alba.

Individual visit of the 'capital' of the Langhe, in the lively atmosphere of the traditional weekly market and 90th Alba White Truffle International Fair.

◊ Alba is unquestionably the most representative city in the entire province of Cuneo and among the most important cultural and economic centers of Piedmont. It is surrounded by an enchanting landscape characterized by the presence of rolling hills and expanses of vineyards that have made it famous all over the world, thanks to the production of fine wines, above all Barolo and Barbaresco. The city is also renowned for the production of truffles, in particular the famous Alba White Truffle. The historic center still retains the ancient medieval structure, with an almost circular plan and the typical tower houses. The town also contains numerous sites of historical, architectural and cultural interest that make Alba a destination not to be missed for anyone visiting the Langhe.

From 09:30 | Visit to the World Truffle Market.

◊ The World Truffle Market is the historic heart of the event dedicated to the “Tuber magnatum Pico”, undoubtedly the ideal place to appreciate the best of truffles from the Langhe and Roero woods.

Lunch at leisure.

Panoramic tour of the Barbaresco Hills.

◊ Suggested itinerary provided by Landmade based on the period/day chosen, to be carried out with own car.

16:00 | Visit to a selected Barbaresco winery with tasting.

◊ In Barbaresco we find the Queen of Wines, also from Nebbiolo grapes and while sharing many similarities with Barolo, the Barbaresco wines emerge with tannins that soften more quickly. The villages and rolling hills in this small area offer a similarly mesmerising visit to accompany your taste buds, and the subtle differences in climate and soil produce a distinct and even rarer fine wine that ripens earlier, and is well structured and aromatic. 

Individual visit to the picturesque villages of Barbaresco and Neive.

◊ Barbaresco and Neive undoubtedly represent the most enchanting villages of the Langa del Barbaresco. The first, dominated by its ancient tower, is a succession of cellars symbolic of the region's economy. Even the nineteenth-century church of San Donato, restored and adapted to the Enoteca Regionale, celebrates its history through the most prestigious labels of the area and numerous photographs that trace its history. The second, with its historical center wrapped in rings around the ancient shelter, is certainly among the most evocative of the Langhe. The medieval layout sees the houses with red roofs leaning against each other and surrounded by hills covered with vineyards. Its historic center – counted among The Most Beautiful Villages In Italy – is captivating, with the cobbled streets that rise to the vault of the Clock Tower, dating back to the thirteenth century.

Back to your hotel.

◊ If we tell you Barolo, you will immediately be reminded of the most famous wine from the Langhe. But Barolo is also a beautiful village, completely immersed in the Langhe hills. Many visitors, attracted by the prestigious wine, discover a very pleasant and characteristic village, formed by a succession of narrow streets overlooked by small houses and dominated by the imposing Castle of the Marquis Falletti, inside which the innovative WiMu is set up.
