Everything is here, in the Langhe: the sun, the clouds, the vines, the towns, the rivers, the rhythm of the seasons, the colours, the hands of the people. Everything is here, because here (in the Langhe) history has intertwined with myth, humanity’s past with everyday life, until they merge and become one, vibrant and vital.
Barolo where Il Re dei Vini was born, the wine produced with the Nebbiolo grape offered a completely different taste experience: it was a sweet and sparkling wine. In fact, in 1787, the future President of the United States Thomas Jefferson, on a visit to Turin, described it thus in his travel diary:
“Sweet like velvety Madeira, astringent on the palate like Bordeaux and lively like Champagne”
The Tour includes
Marquise Giulia of Barolo
It was only later, thanks to the intuition of the Marquise Giulia di Barolo, that the wine took on the body, stability and nobility it has today. In fact, it was her desire to build new cellars where the grapes were vinified in large barrels, in a place protected from the harsh late autumn temperatures.
