Saturday 14^th June 2014 sees the return of the highly anticipated event “Io, Barolo – La Nuit”, to celebrate the 2010 vintage of the “King of Wines” with all the wine-producing members of Strada del Barolo.

After the great success of the 2013 edition of “Io, Barolo”, which took place for the first time during the evening hours, the celebration returns once again this year and is organized by Strada del Barolo to celebrate the new Barolo vintage together with all the producers who, with their job, continue to make this wine a great wine.

On Saturday 14^th June 2014, the amazing setting of the Castle of Roddi will once again host the event which, from 6.30pm to 12pm, will be the location of a big festival for tourists and residents, with particular attention paid to the youngest people!

Also this year, the event will be divided into two different but nearby areas: the anciant cellars of the Castle, with a big stall dedicated to the thematic tasting of the 2010 Barolo, and the ground floor, in the premises of the Castle recently restored, where public and producers will have the opportunity to taste great wines together with traditional dishes of Langa.

As event preview, in the afternoon, two special appointments with the Wine Tasting Experience®: only for this occasion, the participants will have the unique opportunity to taste a SELECTION OF 5 DIFFERENT LABELS OF BAROLO 2000. The tastings will take place at 3.00pm in English and at 5.00pm in Italian in the exclusive seat of the Cooking School of the Castle of Roddi.

From 18.30 to 22.00, with the admission ticket to the anciant cellars the public will have the opportunity to taste a great number of Barolo labels of the 2010 vintage from the wine-producing members of Strada del Barolo, who will also be available to answer any questions. Each participant will receive a stem glass as a gift to take home as memento of the event. In addition, from 19.00, the visitors will have the opportunity to take a guided tour inside the Caste of Roddi, accompanied by a tourist guide of the association Turismo in Langa.

In the ground floor the protagonists will be the other great wines of Langa which, for the entire evening, will be served paired with a selection of local traditional products. It will also be possible to buy single dishes matched with the great wines, choosing between important red and fresh white wines.

To enliven the evening, starting from 22.00, will be staged “Electro-Swing Night” with DJ Pony (Feel Good Productions) and at 24.00, at the end of the event, will be projected the World Cup football match Italy-England.
