Three special nights to discover the wines made from Nebbiolo of Langhe compared to those produced in different areas. It will be an occasion to understand all the nuances and peculiarities that soil, weather, exposure, altitude and other factors give to the wine.

Strada del Barolo proposes a new initiative, scheduled for Autumn, addressed to the many wine lovers and enthusiasts who are curious to discover, understand and appreciate the differences that wines produced from the same vine variety can assume if the are cultivated in specific areas, are grown in different ways and then processed with different methods.
Like brothers descending from the same lineage, each wine will assume its own “character”.
From Langhe to the North of Piedmont, from Roero to Valtellina, from Aosta Valley to Sicily, Nebbiolo is one of the noblest vines in the world and expresses extraordinary characteristics in the different areas of Italy.
