One of my favorite producers of the Langhe, the two Francone brothers produce high quality sustainable wines in Neive, one of the main towns of Barbaresco appellation.

Vietti Azienda Agricola / Winery
@evelyn
Vietti is one of my all time favorite wine producers and they offer a great tasting experience.
Today they lean on the commercial side, being more widely available, and technically owned by a foreign company. They are however still managed by the family on site and every one of their wines is worth a try.
They are one of the producers who was responsible for bringing back Arneis!
But if you are a red wine lover their Nebbiolo PerBacco never disappoints!

Società Agricola Montalbera
@evelyn
The spot to go to taste one of the most overlooked wines of Piedmont-Ruche!
This is a juicy fruity red wine that has a hidden high alcohol %, it used to only be produced in quantities big enough for family consumption, now it’s growing in popularity!
Add to
Details
Tenuta La Tenaglia Srl
@evelyn
You might not expect it but this is the oldest running winery in Piedmont!
Open since the 1400s it has changed hands a number of times, today owned by a German family.
However what is really unique about them is they are also the only winery doing Aged Grignolino.
Grignolino is a wine typically drunk young, but when they found records that the Savoy family referred to aged versions in the cellar, they decided to experiment. The result is delicious. Head there to try it for yourself.

Borgogno
@evelyn
Borgogno is the best solution for an easy tasting in the Langhe. Find their tasting spot right in the center of Barolo, take a tour of their cellar or sit in the courtyard for a delicious tasting.
I highly recommend trying their Barolo Chinato!
Drop in anytime during opening hours for a tasting.
