Jamie & Joy's Insider Tips
- Best Time to Ride: The ideal months for cycling Piedmont are May through early July and September through October. Expect clear skies, moderate temperatures, and the grape harvest (vendemmia) in autumn—an unforgettable cultural moment. Avoid mid-July through August when it can be hot and many locals close shop for holiday.
- Don’t Miss Alba’s Market & Truffle Scene: If your tour includes a Saturday, explore the Alba outdoor market for fresh produce, cheeses, hazelnuts, and handmade goods. Visit during Alba’s White Truffle Fair in October–November for an unforgettable food festival.
- Village Highlights & Wine Stops:
- Barolo: Stop for tastings and a visit to the WiMu Wine Museum inside the castle.
- La Morra: Scenic viewpoint of the Langhe and home to top Barolo producers. Check out the Cappella del Barolo art chapel.
- Barbaresco: Visit the Enoteca Regionale del Barbaresco housed in a deconsecrated church—ideal for tastings.
- Canelli: Home of Italy’s oldest sparkling wine (Asti Spumante). Explore the historic Underground Cathedrals, a UNESCO site.
- Ask us to book private tastings at family-run wineries, including those not open to the general public.
- Cooking Classes & Truffle Hunts: Enhance your experience with a cooking class in Alba or Barolo, where you’ll learn to make local specialties like tajarin pasta or vitello tonnato. Or join a guided truffle hunt with a local “trifolao” and dog—especially during the fall season.
- Eat Like a Local:
- Vitello tonnato, tajarin with butter & sage, agnolotti del plin, and carne cruda.
- Hazelnuts from Alta Langa, local toma cheeses, and Gianduja chocolate in Alba.
- Restaurants to book ahead: Piazza Duomo (3 Michelin Stars) in Alba, Osteria Veglio in La Morra, and La Ciau del Tornavento in Treiso.

- Visit Grinzane Cavour Castle, a UNESCO site and former home of Italy’s first Prime Minister.
- The Sanctuary of the Madonna del Popolo in Canale offers peaceful reflection and panoramic views.
