Piedmont, Italy's quiet luxury.
Barolo, white truffles and the vineyard hills of the Langhe, a UNESCO landscape.
Why go
The Langhe hills are one of the world's great wine landscapes, and in autumn they are home to the white truffle of Alba. Castles crown the villages, hazelnuts grow between the vineyards, and dinner is an event. Piedmont is for travelers who love food and wine without the crowds.
