Meet Piemonte
Discover the artistry of Barolo wines on a private tour through Piemonte’s legendary vineyards. Perfect for wine lovers seeking an insider’s experience in Italy’s top wine region.
Meet Piemonte is a small tour operator based in Alba, Piemonte, offering curated food and wine experiences across the Langhe and Monferrato hills. The operator organizes private and small-group excursions that highlight regional specialties: Barolo and Barbaresco wine tastings, truffle hunts with trained dogs, guided picnics, and multi-winery visits led by local producers. Pickup is available in Alba for selected tours, and some experiences depart from central Turin.
Each itinerary emphasizes authentic, local partners and hands-on experiences. Options include a 7-hour wine and cheese tasting in Monferrato, a truffle hunt with lunch that departs from Turin, an ebike picnic through the Langhe, a 4-hour private Barolo tasting, an 8-hour small-group tour visiting three wineries with a local winemaker, and a combined truffle hunt followed by a Barolo tasting. Group sizes are kept deliberately small, with certain tours limited to eight participants, and private chauffeur service is offered for select excursions.
Meet Piemonte focuses on convenience and immersion: transportation is arranged on many tours, guides or winemakers lead tastings, and itineraries pair seasonal produce with regionally significant wines and producers. The operator presents clear options for both guided experiences and self-drive choices where available. Guests seeking wine-focused tours, truffle experiences, or scenic ebike outings in Alba and the surrounding Piemonte countryside will find specialized, place-based options through Meet Piemonte. Tour durations span from four to eight hours, with half-day and full-day options. Truffle hunts run in small groups — one truffle tour is limited to seven — while other experiences offer private formats.
