5An Unforgettable Piedmont Wine Experience with Marco!
Our days with Marco were a highlight of our trip to Piedmont! He is incredibly knowledgeable, passionate about winemaking, and a deeply welcoming host. Starting the experience at his own fantastic winery (Cascina Galarin) set the perfect tone. To top it off, he was kind enough to seamlessly coordinate the shipping for all the wines we purchased along the way. An unforgettable experience!
5Giovanni was great! Highly recommend
Was such an amazing experience. My girlfriend and I loved our wine tour with Giovanni. He was friendly and knowledgeable. Very happy we chose this tour and highly recommend to anyone else looming for best option. Tasted some amazing wines with some amazing vista's.
511/10
Visiting from Australia. We've been on our fair share of wine tours but this was next level. Very relaxed, very chilled, no fuss. Giovanni & Marco are very passionate about not only wine, but the region that they live in. We 100% want to come back and do it again. We felt like family by the end of it! Highly recommend, you will not be disappointed. Hands down better than our tour in other regions like Tuscany.
5Get a great Tour and the inside knowledge direct from a Winemaker
Marco is a very passionate wine maker who is keen to show you both textbook and farmer-knowledge of winemaking in piedmont. The tour includes an excellent mix of family-owned wineries some selling internationally and some selling only locally. Enjoyed it so much we shipped a case of it back and Marco was extremely helpful in making it happen. Cheers!
5A tour with a local wine maker is truly more rewarding and personal than with just a tour guide
[[I resubmitted this to trip advisor after a month of being stuck in review, maybe it was too long]] My wife and I recently had the pleasure of taking a Langhe Wine Tour with Marco. Marco was very friendly yet professional, incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about everything Piemonte esp the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato regions and their wines; in short, he’s a proud Piemontese except for his Lombardian calcio serie A team selection :). He took us to three beautiful wineries (two + a historic tasting room), where we learned about the history, terroir, grapes, winemaking process and tasted a variety of delicious wines. The first winery we visited was a small family-run winery in Barolo (Alberto Ballarin) in the heart of the Barolo region. We had a great tasting then a visit to the cellar with Alberto himself. We tasted different wines from their Dolcetto and Barbera, then with Nebbiolo, Langhe Nebbiolo, their Barolo Classico and then specific single vineyard. Other than reds, an interesting tasting was for Nascetta, a native white grape from the area that is rare now but making a comeback The second visit was to Produttori del Barbaresco, not the winery/cellar but the tasting room where you try the Langhe Nebbiolo and the Barbaresco classico, a must visit for anyone interested in Barbaresco wine making history (too bad they don't sell their single vineyard wines there) The final and my favorite stop was at Galarin, their family winery where we visited the vineyards (late September, Nebbiolo harvest was a few days to go, so tasting a grape with the right ripeness from the vine was great), the cellar and then the tasting room. Learning about everything from the viticulture to the wine making (maceration time, use of different wine fermentation techniques and vessels including their old wooden fermenter). We had the opportunity to taste a variety of Galarin wines including the Barbera d'Asti, and the Barbera d'Asti Superiore. We also tried the Pinot nero (very aromatic), their monferrato nebbiolo and the great limited quantity 2019 Barolo which I wish they continue to make, it was the best Barolo I tasted that day (and best Nebbiolo overall) with powerful tannic yet elegant and aromatic (looking forward to trying the bottle I bought in a few years). The cherry on the top was their Moscato d’Asti which is not something you have with desert (you can), it is a desert on its own. In addition to the wine tastings, Marco also took us to a picturesque villages (e.g. La Morra) to take in the beautiful scenery as well as understand the terroir, where the different villages and communes are, changes in climate and how that affects wine. Overall, we had a wonderful experience on our Langhe Wine Tour. We highly recommend Marco and the Langhe Wine Tours to anyone interested in learning more about the region and its wines.
5Learning from a wine maker
We had a great day out with Marco. It was lovely to visit his own winery and taste his wines - we also enjoyed two other tastings. As a wine maker he is really knowledgeable about the whole process and the industry. He also speaks excellent English! Another treat was a stop for lunch at Wine Story in Castagnole. Thank you Marco!

About Asti
Asti is a wine town in Piedmont, home of the sparkling wine that bears its name, with medieval towers and a bareback horse race each September.
Asti lies on a plain among the vine-covered hills of Piedmont's Monferrato district, south-east of Turin. It grew as a medieval commune of towers and merchant-bankers, and the cathedral, a Gothic building of red brick, and a number of medieval tower-houses survive in the old centre. Piazza Alfieri, a long triangular square named after the poet Vittorio Alfieri, who was born in the town, is its centre.
