Located in the heart of the scenic Langhe hills of Piedmont, Italy, the diverse soils of Fontanafredda’s property offer unique notes to the carefully tended vines. Enjoy the stunning view from the Helicopter before landing in this amazing place.
Fontanafredda, the historic winery of Serralunga d’Alba, was officially awarded “European Winery of the Year” at the 2017 Wine Star Awards.
Their wines are enjoyed and appreciated all over the world thanks to the rich territory and to the president Oscar Farinetti (Eataly’s owner and founder). He has driven the ancient winery towards more modern and dynamic wine-making techniques while respecting regional traditions.
The winery tour is a surprising journey through the majestic nineteenth-century cellars that are considered among the 100 most beautiful in the world. There are a lot of large oak barrels, still used today for the great red wines of the Langhe, particularly for The King of Wines: the Barolo.
To complete the wine experience, enjoy tasting different wines of their production. And to end with a high note, savor an excellent lunch in the Michelin Star restaurant “Guido” inside the “Royal Villa”. The Guido’s kitchen head, Chef Ugo Alciati, offers a seasonal menu of typical Piedmontese cuisine with high quality raw materials enhancing the excellence of the territory.
