Piedmont in fall is a symphony of flavors and colors, its hills and forests turning orange and red against the quiet outline of the Alps as the season of harvest and abundance gets underway. Nebbiolo grapes are gathered to make the bold red wines of Barolo and Barbaresco; white and black truffles are unearthed from forest floors; and hazelnuts are glazed by pastry chefs to become marrons glacés. In the heart of the UNESCO-listed Langhe Hills, Alba honors its deep culinary roots, while nearby Bra is home to the Slow Food movement. Just to the east, Monferrato – Langhe’s earthier cousin – is also recognized by UNESCO, its hills dotted with villages, Romanesque chapels, and castles that speak to a noble rural past.

Piedmont
Piedmont is the second largest region of Italy and lies at the foot of 3 Alps, the highest peaks and largest glaciers in Italy. It borders Switzerland and France and sweeps breathtaking landscapes, cultural infused gastronomy, well-preserved ancient villas, and medieval castles with stories to tell. Sprouting from the Austrian wars, Piedmont’s transformation began in Turin known for its architectures from the renaissance, baroque, neo-classical and art nouveau eras. Travelers can visit religious sites of the Sacri Monti, take a boat ride on Lake Como, ski the slopes of Bardonecchia, hike the Cesana Forest or gawk at the intricate details of La Venaria Reale.
