Nice way to start you time in Alba
Leslie_S, Oct 2023
Great pace to learn a bit about Alba. The tastings were plentiful & Margarita was lovely. Small group of 10 was just right! The lunch was a perfect way to end our tour.
Truffle tasting was the...
Peggy_K, Aug 2022
Truffle tasting was the best. Guide was knowledgeable, friendly and English was very good. Food was delicious, but we would have liked more tasting of Alba wines. Overall it was a very nice experience.
Response from Host, Aug 2022
The tour is more focused on food and historical information, it includes 2 glasses of wine (anyway 1 extra glass can given on request). Thanks for spending your time on your review. This information can help other guests.
