Piedmont

Piedmont, Italy

Surrounded by vineyards, Piedmont’s historic hill towns look over the distinctive hills of the Monferrato, the Langhe, and Roero. Known as the “Mecca of wine” for its unique and exceptional grape varieties and centuries-old traditions in winemaking, the region attracts wine appreciators from around the world. Travelers come here for that delicious
liquid, the stunning landscapes, and the exceptional cuisine that is so perfectly paired with the wines.

Visitors can wander through many charming medieval towns, marvel at the Baroque architecture of Turin, and experience the warm hospitality of local artisans and winemakers. The birthplace of the Slow Food movement, Piedmont is home to the delightful Nutella, and in October the annual White Truffle Fair in Alba. Here you can indulge in some of the greatest food and wine in the world with the Alps in the distance.
