Rolling hills, soft breezes, intense sun around harvest time, the entire Langhe is a treasure. Its curving roads deliver one scenery after another, with medieval castles, classic churches, cozy restaurants and lively wine bars. No wonder UNESCO listed the entire region as a patrimony of mankind. The region needs to be explored slowly: drive leisurely or ride a bike, or, if that is your style, hike. There are hundreds of hostels and B&Bs, hotels ranging from the inexpensive to the luxurious, and a similarly broad range of dining options. But you visit because of the wines. Arneis, Favorita, Cortese and the enormous flexibility of Nebbiolo, Barbera, Dolcetto and Moscato offer you an endless selection of wines for all tastes.

We are young winemakers with ancient vineyards... The great passion of Roberto for the cultivation of wineyards, and Alessandro for the production of wine have allowed the birth of this small cellar. From the top of the hill of Altavilla you can taste our wines and enjoy the marvellous view of the Langhe. Visits and winetastings are held only by appointment. See you soon!
4. Centro Storico

We were much taken by Alba's Centro Storico on a number of visits we made when staying near Asti. In fact we much preferred it to Asti! It is a joy to stroll around with many pedestrianised streets, an excellent central piazza, a superb Duomo, some very interesting smaller churches, and lots of cafes and restaurants. Lots of noisy locals and happy tourists made for great people watching. If you're staying anywhere near Alba you should most assuredly pay the old historical centre a visit.

For a small church in a small town, this is quite impressive. It has some relics of some saint....neveer sure about these claims.

Reviewed By PiemonteFoodie - Alba, Italy
We like our churches old, but don’t expect them to evolve in ways that are recognizable. Here is a church founded in the 11th century. It has been cared for, renovated, and restored for centuries (you can Google the history and details), but what I really appreciate about this cathedral is the very modern chandelier (for lack of a better term) that hangs above the alter. I know nothing about it, but it’s like a constellation of stars. It reminds us (or me) that we also have a place in history; we might not see it now — just as generations of artists and parishioner throughout the ages gave little thought to our 21st-century reaction — but it signaled to me that tourists in the next millennium will look at this light fixture as something antiquated. So many churches seem artificially stuck in time; this bridges past and present. And now I feel a part of history.
