"Wines and truffles: Langhe and Roero hill" Top 5 Page for this destination Alba by lichinga

An impressive landscape

IT's definitely impressive to travel around in the hills South of Torino, those areas locally known as Langhe, Roero and Monferrato. The low rounded hills are literally covered by wineyards and the kind top-grade wines they are producing makes every single plant a small treasure in itself (you're not allowed to plant any more!).
