This morning, we visited the enchanting Monticello d’Alba castle and were honored to have tea with the Marchesa Elisa Roero di Monticello herself. Imagine centuries of history and stories within these castle walls! The afternoon brought us to the Oddero Winery, where Isabella Oddero led a tour through the cellars, followed by an exceptional Barolo tasting. As the sun set over the Langhe hills, we gathered for an authentic Piedmontese feast. This region has completely stolen our hearts.

What a day! We explored the picturesque town of Alba, wandering through its cobbled streets and marveling at the world-famous International Truffle Fair. The air was filled with the scent of truffles, and we even had time to shop for a few special treasures. In the afternoon, we visited the renowned Vajra winery, where the legendary Aldo Vajra himself shared his family’s winemaking legacy. Another unforgettable day, rounded off with a divine dinner at a local favorite.

Today, we left the bustling city for the rolling hills of Piedmont’s wine country, Le Langhe. Our first stop? A charming rustic farm where we tasted the most incredible artisanal sheep’s milk cheeses, crafted with love and passion. Then, it was off to the historic Marchesi de Gresy winery to sample their exquisite Barbaresco wines and learn about generations of winemaking excellence. Tonight, we’re savoring a gourmet dinner at our stunning relais villa. Pure bliss in every moment!
