"I had toured a bit the area before but never stopped in Barbaresco region or the Enoteca before, totally the number 1 thing to do!
They have a great selection of wines daily, super friendly people, great experience, we even got a list of places to visit for more wine tastings and back stories to the wineries. Highlight of the experience!
Totally recommend"

"Located in a historic and beautiful old church this enoteca (wine shop) had plenty of wine selections from local wineries. It’s a great way to try many area wines without stopping at each one. Tastings are $3-$8 per glass depending on your selection and bottles are very fairly priced (not marked up too much $5-10 from the cost at the winery) We also purchased some posted here and the 3D maps of the Barolo and Barbaresco Cru’s. Worth a stop!"
