About the destination: The Langhe; Langa is from old dialect Mons Langa et Bassa Langa) is a hilly area to the south and east of the river Tanaro in the province of Cuneo and in the province of Asti in Piedmont, northern Italy. It is famous for its wines, cheeses, and truffles—particularly the white truffles of Alba. The countryside as it was in the first half of the 20th century features prominently in the writings of Beppe Fenoglio and Cesare Pavese, who was born there, in Santo Stefano Belbo. On 22 June 2014, a part of the Langhe was inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage list for its cultural landscapes, outstanding living testimony to winegrowing and winemaking traditions that stem from a long history, and that have been continuously improved and adapted up to the present day. They bear witness to an extremely comprehensive social, rural and urban realm, and to sustainable economic structures. They include a multitude of harmonious built elements that bear witness to its history and its professional practices. Its vineyards constitute an outstanding example of man’s interaction with his natural environment. Following a long and slow evolution of winegrowing expertise, the best possible adaptation of grape varieties to land with specific soil and climatic components has been carried out, which in itself is related to winemaking expertise, thereby becoming an international benchmark. The winegrowing landscape also expresses great aesthetic qualities, making it into an archetype of European vineyards. Crutin cheese is made in Langhe. In geology, the Langhian Age of the Miocene Epoch is named for the Langhe region.

Known as the gourmet capital of Italy, Alba is the birthplace of the Slow Food movement and home to the esteemed white truffle. Visitors from around the globe flock to this charming town, especially in autumn, to partake in the annual International White Truffle Fair. But Alba's allure extends beyond its epicurean offerings; the town's medieval streets, lined with historic buildings and bustling with local markets, provide a captivating backdrop for any traveler's Italian escapade. Exploring Alba's Enchanting Old Town A stroll through Alba's old town is akin to stepping back in time. Begin your journey at the heart of the city, Piazza Risorgimento, where you can admire the intricately designed Cathedral of San Lorenzo, with its Romanesque-Gothic façade and towering bell tower. Wander through the cobblestone streets and discover the many palaces and towers that reflect Alba's medieval heritage, including the imposing Alba Civic Tower, which offers panoramic views of the city and surrounding Langhe hills. As you explore, indulge in the local boutiques, artisanal shops, and cozy cafés that lend Alba its warm, inviting atmosphere. A Gastronome's Dream Destination Alba's reputation as a gastronomic paradise is well-deserved, with local specialties that are sure to tantalize your taste buds. The region is famous for its exquisite wines, such as Barolo and Barbaresco, which you can sample at one of the many enotecas or vineyards dotting the countryside. Food enthusiasts will revel in the chance to try traditional Piedmontese dishes, such as tajarin (thin egg pasta) and vitello tonnato (veal with tuna sauce), often enhanced with the coveted white truffle when in season. For those with a sweet tooth, a visit to one of Alba's renowned chocolatiers is a must – after all, this is the hometown of Ferrero, the company behind Nutella and Ferrero Rocher.

Beyond the town's borders, take the opportunity to explore the UNESCO World Heritage-listed vineyard landscapes of Langhe, Roero, and Monferrato, offering not only breathtaking views but also a deeper appreciation of the region's profound connection to wine and truffle production. Whether you're a food lover, history buff, or simply looking to experience the enchanting allure of Italian small-town life, Alba promises a journey filled with rich flavors, stunning vistas, and unforgettable moments.
