Visita privada: descubra los vinos de las Langhe con un sumiller experto

Riste was great! He was welcoming, easy to talk with and friendly. He selected two small family owned and operated vineyards. That resonated with us. He shared why these vineyards are important to the wine culture. He explained all about the different grapes and types of wine in the region. He answered all our questions, even the naive ones. He made the lunch reservation for us at a great restaurant with more amazing views and food. We greatly enjoyed our time with Riste! Oh, we did buy wine and he helped us with the shipping to the USA. He made our excursion amazing!

We strongly recommend this tour. The day was very well organized, with an excellent schedule, a thoughtful selection of wineries, and a perfectly timed lunch at a great restaurant. Riste is very nice and friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed the entire day, including the conversations during the drives between the wineries. He was highly knowledgeable about wines, as well as many other related topics. His explanations were clear, engaging, and complemented the tour beautifully. We want to attend his tour next time if we have a chance to visit this area again!

My wife and I had an amazing time on this tour. Riste was fantastic — incredibly knowledgeable about wine and the region, and just genuinely fun to spend the day with. He was in touch beforehand to arrange pickup from the train station in Asti and help us book lunch at a local Osteria that was outstanding. We visited some beautiful family vineyards that we never would have found on our own, and came away actually understanding the wines we were tasting. Highly recommend this experience!

Booking from Australia, we weren’t sure what would be the best way to explore the area. We had read good reviews of Riste and his tour and decided to book. Communication was excellent and answered any questions. The two of us had a great day with Riste and would recommend. The day was easy paced and we were conveniently picked up from Alba. We visited small family wineries who welcomed us and provided with the opportunity to understand the area, appellations and taste their range of wines through to Barolos. Lunch was at a restaurant in Castiglione Falletto that had been one of a selection provided by Riste and then pre booked at our request and at additional cost. The restaurant, food, wine and views were great. After lunch we moved onto a second family winery for further tastings including Barbaresco. Overall we really enjoyed the experience and Riste was a relaxed, personable and knowledgeable host. Highly recommend.

Riste gave us a great wine tour of the Langhe region. He was very proactive in communicating before the tour. He is very knowledgeable about the wine, region and wineries. He picked great boutique family run wineries, a great restaurant for lunch and also helped shipping wines home. Would gladly use his services again!
