What to expect
Your driver meets you at your Milan hotel and drives you south into Piedmont's famous wine valleys. The morning takes in two established wineries: you'll tour cellars, see production equipment, and taste wines directly from producers who know their craft. Between tastings, you'll wander through villages with views of vineyards stretching to the horizon. Around midday, you'll lunch at a restaurant we've booked—this is on your bill, but we'll match it to your tastes and any dietary needs. Afternoons blend more village exploration with final tastings or a second winery experience, depending on your interests and the schedule. The drive back to Milan takes roughly two hours.
