Producers
The problems that wine tourists have planning visits to wineries in Piemonte are:
1. There are more or less a 1,000 producers of Barolo and Barbaresco; not to mention the other areas and grape varieties
2. Little English is spoken although the younger generation are beginning to learn
If you are considering visiting the region, you should consider using experienced tour guides as English is not generally spoken, (see the links on this page). Alternatively drop me an email (darryl@piemontemio.com) and I will gladly provide you with some personalised advice.
Here are some of our favourite producers who in our opinion get the price/quality equation right or are so good the price can be forgiven. Not always the best (although arguable) but value over reputation rather than the other way round.
