    A visit to Barolo village, located right in the heart of the Langhe wine route and protected by surrounding hills, almost entirely vineyard-cultivated, is the destination for those who love wine. Visit along Barolo’s cobblestone lanes toward the ancient castle, an ocher-hued fortification with history dating to the 10th century. This medieval village is considered the capital of the 'king' of wines: thanks to the fame that this precious nectar has gained worldwide.
