Moscato Canelli Experience

CANELLI DOCG EXPERIENCE

A storytelling walk through the Moscato Canelli vineyards and lunch including wine tasting

A local enological excellence, narrated in the places where it is produced.

The Storymovers® will guide you through the hills of Canelli DOCG, to discover the origins of Moscato, the traditional wine of this Langa Astigiana area.

You will listen to stories of poets, writers and partisans, walking through the vineyards where the golden nectar of Moscato di Canelli is born while immersing yourself in the beauty of the landscape.

You will step into a storytelling that belongs to the past, but still lives on in the local hills.

Finally, you can enjoy a dinner/lunch paired with Moscati and local wines at the Osteria dei Meravigliati in Canelli, right where the tour began.

Travelbetween the different stages will be by minivan, allowing you then to enjoy short walks in nature.
