Piedmont, wine region

A lot of peolple think Tuscany when they think of Italian wine, but Piedmont is also famous for his quality wines. The Piedmont Wine Region, particularly in the Langhe sub region, is a land of castles, vineyards and romantic hills .

In fact, the region attracts gourmet travellers from all over the world who go there to simply eat and enjoy fine wine and it's no wonder that the Slow Foor Movement is very strong in Piedmont, a region where people celebrate their wine and gastronomy every time they can.
