Gattinara - Altopiemonte - Oct 2020

Gattinara is a small wine village with the beautiful vineyard hills.

Main red grape is nebbiolo as it is in Piedmont, but here there are many subnames(Clone) of nebbiolo.

We have stayed at Anzivino Viticoltori in the middle of town. They have some cosy rooms, each room has a name of nebbiolo clone.

Owner Emanuele is a very gentle person and cares not only of his vineyards, but also his guests very well.

He told us that the family comes originally from Milan and sometimes in 90' they bought an old distillery and started to make wines.


A 30 minutes walk from cantina up to the hill, you will find torre delle castelle and beautiful view over the town.

Typical food: Beef Tartare, Salad Russa, Vitello Tonnato, also Risotto al vino prunent (nebbiolo) e foie gras.. delicious

Produced  Coste della Sesia DOC, Gattinara DOCG, 

Bramaterra DOC   

Nebbiolo is often blended with croatina and bonarda

Valli Ossolane - Altopiemonte - Oct 2020

The small town Oira has 120 inhabitants and is very close to the border to Switzerland. Very north of Piedmont and Italy.

We have stayed at Cantine Garrone's cosy B & B with nice breakfast service.

 The house of B & B is a former customs house and called Cá d'Maté (casa della Mateo)which also contains a cellar for wine maturation.

Mario Garrone showed us a small town of Oira around,  an old church and the antique cheese fabric where the special production  "Ossolano Prunent" is matured in a barrel.  Between 8 Layers of Toma cheese, the prunent grape skins will be sandwiched.

Valli Ossolane is D.O.P since 2009, grapes have been cultivated since 14 Century..  the main grapes are Prunent (Nebbiolo), Croatina, Merlot, Chardonnay.

There is a restaurant in the next house where you can enjoy the typical food and the local wine.

Typical food: there are several, but for example: filetto all'Ossolana con prociutto crudo da Vigezzo e toma d'alpe, l'antica zuppa di Oira

Risotto al vino Ossolano con bresaola nostrana..

☛Here we offer a tour for mountain trekking, local wine & food, cooking,  also lago maggiore & lago di Orta are not far.
