ABOUT US

In 2007, we fell in love with this enchanting wine region of Northern Italy. It was a love affair that would change our lives forever.

We, found our home away from home amidst the rolling hills and lush vineyards of Piemonte. Two years after that first encounter with the region, we were already proud owners of a charming hotel. However, it was only in 2015, when we began importing the finest local wines to our native country, that our journey to Piemonte took a new turn.

In 2016, we closed our hotel and took the courageous step to purchase an authentic Piemontese farmhouse, nestled among the vineyards, with a breathtaking view that enchants us every morning. From that moment on, we dedicated our lives to the passion for wine, with a particular emphasis on the Barolo region. By living in the heart of these vineyards, we have developed a very good knowledge and understanding of viticulture, traditions, and the people that make this region so unique.

We spend our days amongst local winemakers and cherishing the natural beauty and authenticity around us. It is a life steeped in the spirit of Piemonte, where each bottle of wine tells a story and each sip is a journey through time and terroir.

But our love for Piemonte is not limited to wine alone. In 2019, we joined forces with Gabriele Salvatore to organize the first wine tours to Barolo. During these tours, we discovered a new passion: sharing our knowledge and love for this amazing region with others. From historic castles to picturesque villages and breathtaking nature, Piemonte has so much more to offer than just wine. Through Barolo Tours, we want to welcome travelers of all kinds to explore this captivating environment in their own unique way.

So whether you're a hiker, cyclist, adventurer, wine lover, or even a teetotaler, there is something magical about Piemonte that is enchanting for everyone. We invite you to join us on an adventure and enjoy the hidden treasures of this beautiful region.

We look forward to seeing you in Piemonte!
