Full description
Choosing between wine and chocolate is like choosing between mum and dad.
Take part in our food and wine experience in Monforte d'Alba: in the company of a guide, you will learn more about wine production and taste the best labels from the cellar combined with Piedmontese chocolate.
An experience of over 1 hour, toasting with your favourite products (and favourite people) !
What we will do
The appointment is 15 minutes before the selected time at the meeting point in Bussia, a hamlet in the municipality of Monforte d'Alba (CN) . The experience takes place at Costa di Bussia Tenuta Arnulfo, a historic winery immersed in the wine-growing landscape of the Langhe.
At the reception we will find our guide, who will accompany us into his (delicious) world! Having gathered all the participants, the experience will begin with a walk through the historic vineyards, with a panoramic view of the village of La Morra. We will continue with a visit to the Luigi Arnulfo Museum, founder of the winery and considered the 'Pioneer of Barolo'. And we will end with a tour of the cellar, walking between steel tanks and wooden barrels to discover the winemaking process. This part lasts about 30 minutes.
At the end of the exploration, we will take a seat in the tasting room: we will taste 5 wines (Langhe DOC Chardonnay, Barbera d'Alba DOC "Vigna Campo del Gatto", Barolo DOCG Bussia, Barolo DOCG Bussia "Luigi Arnulfo", Barolo Chinato) accompanied by chocolates from the Piedmontese brand Venchi. The tasting will be enriched by the guide's descriptions that will enhance each sip and bite.
The experience will last a total of approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes.
