Piemonte Wine Day in Barolo and Barbaresco

We had a wonderful group of 6 that went to wine country for the day.   We hired a driver and enjoyed a relaxing day showing our friends one of the most famous wine areas of the world.  We started our day at 10am and headed to an Enoteca in Barbaresco for a sampling.

We had to follow that with a fantastic lunch at Casa Nicolini in Barbaresco (www.casanicolini.com) and check out these views!

Next we headed to Barolo and did a tasting at Marchesi di Barolo.

We had a few minutes until our tasting and tour started so we killed a little time....

And then we got down to serious business.

And our final tasting was at one of my favorite places with a lady named Chiara (you have seen pictures from here in my previous posts).

After bellies full of wine samplings and great food we made it home to beautiful Arona!
