Ready for a crash course in Piedmont Wines? 

Recently we’ve been acquainting ourselves with Northern Italy’s captivating wine region of Piedmont. With its rich foods and powerful wines, Piedmont has long been a darling of the wine world. But, its been only in recent times that the land of Nebbiolo, hazelnuts, and the decadent Alba White Truffle started receiving mainstream attention. Since more every day winelovers are tasting the wines of the region we thought we’d put together a primer on Piedmont wines. From Arneis to Dolcetto, Barbera to Nebbiolo, these are wines worth exploring.
