Located in the heart of the Langhe hills of Piedmont, in 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 at Fontanafredda Village winery.
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 savored all over the world thanks to its complex and rich bouquet, and clay-rich territory. A special mention is due to president Oscar Farinetti (Eataly’s owner and founder), who drove 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. A lot of the large oak barrels are still used today for Langhe great red wines, and the King of Wines, Barolo, is no exception.
To complete the experience, a wine tasting like no other and the possibility to lunch at the Michelin Star restaurant Guido inside the Royal Villa. The Guido’s head chef, Ugo Alciati, offers a seasonal menu of typical Piedmontese cuisine with high quality raw materials, enhancing the excellences of the territory.
