Couple Traveller

We spent a week in the Langhe and we participated in various experiences including that of Grinzane cavour which I highly recommend everyone to participate.
First we visited the wonderful castle of Grinzane, inside there is a museum that is very well organized, everything is explained with appropriate texts and audio guides, inside there are many rooms and rooms that tell the story of wine and Piedmont. At the end of the path we tasted delicious and fine wines at the Regional wine shop where it is possible to buy wine and typical products of the Langhe.
After visiting the castle we moved to a wonderful wine cellar where they explained a lot about grapes and wine and finally we tasted their wines which were special!
