Epicurean incursion into the heart of Piedmont

Piedmont denominations such as Barolo DOCG, Barbaresco DOCG, Barbera d’Alba DOC, and Roero DOCG represent the very essence of Piedmont’s winemaking tradition. Each denomination carries centuries of history, culture, and passion for wine. Barolo and Barbaresco, both DOCG, are considered among the world’s most prized wines, with their aromatic complexities and aging potential. Barbera d’Alba DOC, with its fruity and fresh character, is a vibrant interpretation of the Barbera variety, while Roero DOCG, known for its elegance and finesse, celebrates the unique territory of the Roero hills. These denominations reflect the diversity and oenological excellence of Piedmont, contributing to solidify its reputation as one of the world’s most prestigious wine regions.

It’s precisely the Piedmontese wines of these denominations that will take center stage at the Piedmont Expo event dedicated to a targeted audience of wine lovers in Quebec, taking place on Saturday, March 23, 2024, in Montreal.
