Winery visit with lunch in the Langhe

The first part of the experience includes a visit to the historic Giachini vineyard, which surrounds the property, during which the various processes for cultivating the vines are explained; from the vineyard you then enter the garden and continue inside the winery through the various rooms dedicated to the processes of wine making and bottling, then reaching the final rooms for aging and displaying the historic bottles in the 17th-century farmhouse that once belonged to the Bishop's Curia of Alba. You will visit one of the most historic wineries in the Barolo Langa, founded in 1908. For the second part, we move to the historic center of Barolo, at what was, in the late 1800s the first social winery of Barolo and then the Germano family winery from the 1930s, where lunch is served with the selected wines. There are four courses and include a sampling of: an appetizer, a first course, a second course and a dessert, ideal for those who want to explore wine pairing while tasting many delicious dishes, each symbolizing a traditional recipe. The dishes, prepared with fresh produce from the farm Il Bosco delle Galline Volanti and other local farms make the tasting particularly authentic and with a focus on km0. The dishes, always seasonal, give the opportunity to range through ancient Piedmontese food and wine culture. Our research aims at rediscovering recipes of yesteryear but selecting them with today's criteria (lighter and healthier ingredients) and bringing them back to a more credible peasant context. To give an example we make the classic ravioli del plin but it is unlikely that families could afford beef, it is much more likely that they used barnyard animals and thus plin with chicken filling was born. A cuisine that seeks to preserve a collective heritage. Each dish, as well as each wine, will be told in its organoleptic characteristics but also through the history and anecdotes behind it.
