Barolo has over the last 100 years become one of Italy’s greatest wines. The temperamental Nebbiolo grape expresses itself best when grown around five towns, one of which is the eponymous Barolo. It is a small production wine with low yields to ensure the finest quality. This wine orginates from the area of Langhe. The area is the hilly subregion east of the Tanaro river and south of Alba, in the Cuneo province of Piedmont (Piemonte). The name “Langhe” is the plural form of langa, a local word for a long, low-lying hill.
