Sunday Still recovering from the Sagra in Murazzan

Sunday Still recovering from the Sagra in Murazzano (Alta Langa) 🥴Summer is all about the outdoor food and beverage festivals, patron saint celebrations etc.

🎊This was was one of my favorites because we got to eat 8 courses at different stations spread out throughout the cobblestone streets of the town. We had accordion players 🪗accompany us, belly dancers entertaining 💃🏻 and an astronomer showing us the stars.💫

🌞Summer may be hot when visiting Italy but these festivals and sagras are always so fun!🕶

Still so hot🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Luckily in Italy

Still so hot🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Luckily in Italy there are community pools where you can beat the heat.
Here we were in @piscina_di_piasco at the foot of the Valle Varaita Alpine valley here in Piemonte.

👙Luckily there are also a lot more B&Bs with pools in the Langhe which I would say is almost a MUST now when visiting in the summer!🏊‍♀️

Introducing another one of the smallest wineries i

Introducing another one of the smallest wineries in Barolo, @lacontradadisorano . Experiences like this, tasting in their kitchen with the family is what first made me fall in love with Piemonte. 🤩Paolo and Cristina are a hard working team full of dreams.🌟

Paolo is holding their Favorita, a vanishing white varietal or otherwise known as Vermentino in the rest of Italy. Classically aged in stainless steel this wine is light, crisp and quite simple BUT macerated on the skins (this one for 14 days) a wonderful pepperiness shines through. I am excited to introduce members to this wine in our Upcoming wine selection! 🥳

Calcareous blue marls in #Serralunga. The first vi

Calcareous blue marls in #Serralunga. The first video shows the soil going down about 3 meters and just think the roots can go down even double!
The MGA cru of Briccolina is surrounded by Ornato, Falleto, Boscareto and just down the hill from the famed Francia on the southern end of Serralunga village.
La Briccolina is a tiny winery run by Daniele Grasso who makes just one wine: Barolo Briccolina with about 6,000 total bottles produced. We got the last 6 bottles of 2017 in the cellar before the 18 will be released in the Fall! Now that is what I call an exciting wine purchase. DM if you want one!

🍷History in a bottle🍷

Tasting special treats like this (mystery vintage!!!) doesn’t happen every day. @paitinwine shared this cellar find with @wineswithmuscles and me on our last visit and we were in awe of their knowledge when talking about all of the vintages and guessing what it could be. I like to think it was an ‘82 even though it was unlikely! Visiting Paitin is aways such a pleasure!

Have you ever had their wines? We have just a few bottles of Riserva #Barbaresco 2009 left if you are interested!(just DM me)

🌞Sounds like there are heat spells all across the world! We are expecting high 90s here in Langhe which always feels at least 10 degrees hotter🔥🔥🔥

🥵We escaped the heat for a few days but are back home. So what wines are we drinking to beat the heat??? Check out what we are drinking in our new blog post in bio link!🍾

“Mia” - My Gift From God🏖
—————————————————
I was going to spend every day in Ventimiglia with the kids but was staying 2 towns down on the Ligurian coast called Bordighera. I had no car and the kids had their bikes so I was brainstorming how I could get back and forth multiple times: taxi, bus, electric scooter rental, rental bike etc. when literally I was walking by a big garbage bin on a side road and spotted “mia”. It was love at first site 🥰despite all her rusty chains, flat tires and pop off seat. I kept walking and wondered if it was too good to be true. Is it someone just parking it in front of the garbage cans? It had a lock so why was it not tied up? Later that day I walked by again to see if it was still there, I looked at my friend and said, “are you thinking what I am thinking?” Someone left it there as junk!
So we pumped up the tires and that girl was mine. 🚲It has been my saving grace the last few days alone with the kids as my only mode of transportation and I couldn’t have imagined doing this without her!
I will be sad to say goodbye😢 but hope it will be serendipitous for someone else wherever I will leave her.

Amazing seasonal vegetarian food at our super lunch 🍅🥬@barolo_bar_monforte
Today was all about long lasting friendships (@wineswithmuscles) reuniting with charming winemakers like 🍇@michelaadriano_ and meeting new young talent like @cadipress . Today was an example of conviviality full of wine and smiles , that I just wanted to freeze in time🙏🏻 viva 🍷
(Not to mention some great wines thanks to @cadipress & @professore_usa )

The fun continues…🥳 🍇Here we are learning

The fun continues…🥳

🍇Here we are learning about the Serralunga crus that go into @cantinapalladino Barolos. I love that @lavero_palladino explains that Barolo classico, Barolo del Comune and Barolo single vineyard wines should all be on the same level and not be considered as starting from basic and going up a quality scale. In fact, We all loved the Barolo Comune di Serralunga and as a matter of fact in the classic 2018, the riserva vineyard can be found!🏆

I have been on a Barolo 2018 vintage tasting marathon 🍷and I can honestly say these Barolos are some of the best I have tasted so far! If you can find them, buy without hesitation🤗

A beautiful morning with less haze and finally cooler weather!

The last few weeks have been terribly 🔥🔥🔥🔥.

Fortunately a few 💧💧drops of rain fell today with lots of wind which lifted the muggy curtain in the Langhe. Yay!

Adriano from @bajajwines is one of the hardest working and motivated young winemakers I know. He is a dreamer 💫and shoots for the stars. His parents are full of love ❤️and support, which is so special to see. Meeting real families and making lasting memories like this is what it is all about !

❓What is a “cantina comunale”?
- A cantina (winery) comunale (township) is a fantastic place where the village wine shop only represents labels and wineries from that particular town. Usually there is not much of a price mark up since their purpose is to be a sort of wine representative/showcase for the town.

❓Why go to a cantina comunale?
- You can get a sense of terroir by tasting multiple producers all from the same village and get great prices if you would like to purchase.

❓What are some of our favorites?
♦️@nascettadinovello where you can focus on Nascetta and other wines from Novello (pictured)
♦️@cantinalamorra one of the best of all time with very knowledgeable staff @langhegirl @schelli_fra great selection of wines and tasting events
♦️@cantinacomunalecastiglione hidden down at the base of the castle, the delicious restaurant will surprise you! Their pours by the glass are generous and they represent some of the greatest labels from Castiglione Falletto.

Have you ever been to one of these?

Fun (and hot🔥🔥🔥🔥times) with @localguidepiemonte & our fantastic group:)

@la_cantinetta_di_barun is a great spot for good wines 🍷and good company in a picturesque setting in one of the most beautiful villages in Italy, Neive. Here we did an interesting comparison between @francoroccaneive 2015 and @luisa_rocca (Bruno Rocca) Barbarescos. Highly recommend this place if you are ever in Neive!🍇
