Truffles. Wines. Amber vineyards. For the Gourmet Wanderer, autumn is when Northern Italy reveals its soul... truffle hunts in Piedmont, private tastings in UNESCO-listed wine cathedrals, and chocolate rituals under golden canopies. This isn’t just a getaway—it’s a curated week of the season’s finest.
Act1
The Truffle & Wine Tapestry of Piedmont
Your journey begins in the Langhe hills—where chestnut forests conceal truffles, vineyards roll toward the horizon, and every path leads to something aged, aromatic, and unforgettable. Your base? Casa di Langa—a contemporary sanctuary set on 100 acres of working vineyards and woodland. With panoramic views over Barolo and a culinary program rooted in zero-waste fine dining, this isn’t just a place to stay—it’s the perfect lens through which to experience the season.

Truffle Trails & Forest Secrets
Step into the autumn forest near Alba for a private truffle hunt with expert foragers and their Lagotto Romagnolo companions. Your reward? A truffle-infused lunch at Relais San Maurizio, where every bite is a celebration of the land you just walked.

Wine Cathedrals of Canelli
Descend into the Wine Cathedral of Canelli—UNESCO-listed, frescoed, and carved deep into the hillside. Here, metodo classico and sparkling wines are poured in silence, straight from cellars that have aged them to perfection.

Sweetness & Splendor
Return to Alba for a visit to the truffle museum, then continue to Cherasco for a guided tasting of its legendary hazelnut pralines. The day ends at Castello di Guarene, where Piedmontese ravioles with Castelmagno cheese are served in a dining room draped in 18th-century frescoes.
Act2
The Royal Heartbeat of Turin
After the stillness of the countryside, you arrive in Turin—a city where elegance is effortless and history lingers in every colonnade. Your base is Principi di Piemonte, the city’s grande dame of hospitality. With its Art Deco detailing, sweeping marble interiors, and views across Turin’s baroque skyline, it blends old-world grandeur with modern discretion.

A Palace of Your Own
Step into the regal world of Palazzo Reale, once home to the House of Savoy. Wander through the Throne Room, the Chinese Salon, and the Capella della Sindone, opened exclusively for your visit. In the evening, dine at Circolo dei Lettori—a private cultural club in a historic palace. Savor hand-folded ravioli, then finish with Zabajone—a silky Piedmontese dessert made with sweet wine and egg yolk.
