Barolo Wine Tasting from Milan — Discover Italy’s Hidden Wine Region

Spend a day outside Milan exploring Piedmont, one of Italy’s most beautiful and authentic wine regions. This area, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is known for rolling vineyards, small family wineries, and honest food that reflects centuries of tradition.

Travel comfortably from Milan into the Langhe hills, where the famous Barolo wine is produced. Visit a family-run boutique winery and taste six local red wines, including Barolo — often called the “King of Italian wines” for its depth and elegance. Meet the winemakers, walk through their cellars, and learn how the wine is made, step by step.

Continue to Alba, a historic town known across Italy for its truffles — rare, aromatic mushrooms that grow naturally underground.

In autumn (October–November), you can visit the White Truffle Fair, where local restaurants serve handmade pasta with fresh truffle shaved on top.

In summer, enjoy black truffle dishes or regional specialties in Michelin-recommended restaurants where locals still dine.

Finish the day at a hilltop castle overlooking miles of vineyards and the distant Alps. Enjoy one last glass of Barolo or vermouth and take in the views before returning to Milan.

Tuesday Program:
When the castle is closed, the tour visits La Morra Village, a peaceful panoramic viewpoint above the Barolo valley — just as scenic and authentic.
