Barolo Wine Tour from Milan
The best way to arrive to Barolo from Milan is either by train or car. The easiest way to arrive to Barolo without having to drive will be by train from Milan Centro to Asti. There are several trains each day with one stop Milan- Torino- Asti routes. From there it is highly recommended to have a wine guide or a car service in order to arrive to some of the most famous Barolo wineries. If you choose to drive from Milan, it is quite easy, about an hour and a half and you will arrive in the middle of the vine covered hills of the Barolo wine making region.
Barolo Wine Tour from Turin
Turin the capital city of Piemonte, is an overlooked city by tourists. Turin was the first capital of Italy, with its rich history of royalty, the architecture, the food, and of course the wines make Turin one of the most interesting and beautiful cities in Italy to visit. With a short and direct train ride from Turino Porta Nuova to Asti (35 minutes), you can easily be picked up by your wine guide or car service who in minutes will have you nestled amongst the Nebbiolo vines.
Barolo Wine Tour from Alba
Alba the epicenter of Nebbiolo and the Alba White Truffles. Thousands of people from all over the world come to this tiny city to enjoy its culinary delights. With a location in Alba you are in the center of Barolo and Barbaresco vineyard area and a 10 minute drive in either direction will have you in the center of Langhe wine country. If you are staying in Alba a wine guide or car service is highly recommend, as drinking and driving is frowned upon.
