Expert guide
Tasting led by Paula, a friendly and highly knowledgeable guide.
This guided tasting is designed for both curious beginners and experienced palates. Every wine is selected to best represent the variety and depth of Piedmontese winemaking. It's not just about drinking: it's about understanding, recognising and appreciating.
With excellent value for money and a perfect 5-star rating, the experience is among the favourites of Turin visitors. Fifty euros for an authentic immersion in one of Italy's most important gastronomic heritages.
Six Piedmontese labels to discover sip by sip
The tasting unfolds over six samples carefully selected to offer a complete and engaging overview of Piedmontese wine production. You start light and arrive at full structure, following a thread that has the taste of discovery.
It opens with a Piedmontese sparkling, lively and fragrant, perfect to wake up the senses. It continues with the fresh, delicate notes of a local white wine, showing how Piedmont can also speak with elegance outside the world of reds.
The heart of the tasting is all red: four wines from the most representative denominations of the region. From softer, more immediate labels you arrive at the absolute peak: Barolo, the king of Italian wines, made from Nebbiolo grapes on the hills of the Langhe.
Every taste is paired with a description that helps you recognise aromas, structure and pairings. No previous experience is required: curiosity is the only requirement.

Useful tips
- Arriva alla assaggio senza aver mangiato troppo: un leggero spuntino è ideale, ma uno stomaco pieno rischia di attutire le percezioni sensoriali e ridurre il piacere degli assaggi.
- Dopo la assaggio, lasciati conquistare da le enoteche storiche di Torino — come quelle in zona Quadrilatero Romano — per acquistare le bottiglie che ti hanno conquistato e portare a casa un pezzo di Piemonte autentico.
- Abbina questa esperienza a una camminata tra i caffè storici di Piazza Castello: un bicchiere di Barolo e un giro tra i portici torinesi è la combinazione perfetta per sperimentare Torino come un vero conoscitore.
