Grinzane Cavour Castle

Grinzane Cavour Castle stands in one of the most spectacular settings in the Langa, just 5 km from Alba. The imposing building, erected around a central tower dating back to the first half of the XI century, can be admired in all its original beauty following the restoration that began in 1960, in celebration of the first centenary of the Unification of Italy. The Castle now houses the "Cavour" Regional Enoteca, the first to be set up in Piedmont in 1967. This is a prestigious showcase for the very best Piedmontese wines and grappas, foremost amongst them being Barolo and Barbaresco. The wines undergo a strict selection process before being displayed and placed on sale along with leading local food products. Tastings possible.

Centro Storico

Reviewed By AllanJGJ - Wellington, New Zealand

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.

Reviewed By RuthCuritiba_Brazil
