It takes place in Alba and is the fourth edition: the event has officially entered the general program of the Alba International White Truffle Fair and has moved its date to the weekend starting Friday, November 1st.

This is “The Great Terroirs of Barbaresco,” an event created by Go Wine and scheduled for October 25th and 26th in Alba, in the elegant Calissano and Fenoglio Rooms of the Hotel Calissano, during the 95th edition of the Alba International White Truffle Fair.

The event aims to tell the story of a great wine like Barbaresco through its territory, the different geographical denominations (crus), and meetings with its producers, highlighting the differences and riches of the various sites of the denomination.

A tasting to explore, firsthand, the richness of the production area, the peculiarities of the distinct geographical indications, and to inspire tasters and the public to reflect on the importance of the "land-territory" factor in the greatness of a wine like Barbaresco.
