“The interest for Piemonte seems to continue” says Henrik Koudahl, co-founder of Piemonte Wine Tours, “so I think that our day tours starting this spring will fill up quickly”. Henrik continues: “We are particularly happy that travellers have started to discover that springtime in Piemonte is also a good time for wine and food travel. There’s no harvest and the winemakers have better time for visits. Still there are plenty of things happening in the wine cellars.”

The day tours on the 2009 program are all classics: We continue our most popular tour to Barolo. The Barolo is one of the greatest wines in Italy and the world, thanks to its characteristic organoleptic features. Going on a Barolo Tour will give our travellers a good introduction to Barolo wines and show them how important Terroir is.

Another possibility is our day tour to Barbaresco. Barbaresco, more than most wines in the world, resembles a comet. After all, untill the last few decades who outside of Piemonte have ever heard of Barbaresco? On this tour you will get a good glimpse of Barbaresco history.

We want our travellers to have a unique experience that will stay with them for a long time after coming home. At the same time I hope they come home knowing a bit more about the wines and food in Piemonte. But most importantly I want to share some of my enthusiasm for the wine, for the food and especially for the winemakers we visit” says Henrik Koudahl.
