In a few short days we experienced the best Northern Italy has to offer. Our hostess Julia was so knowledgeable. She booked us into a pasta making class with a local Italian family and white truffle hunting in the Monferrato countryside. We got to eat our homemade pasta and taste the truffle on each occasion - YUM! No trip to Italy is complete without wine so Julia booked us into a tasting at a historic castle. We loved our trip and can’t wait to book another trip with Julia. Highly recommended!…

I would highly recommend Julia from Piedmont Food and Wine. My son and myself had an amazing time. Julia organised a bespoke day for us. We were picked up from our hotel, then driven to see some of the area surrounding Alba before we took part in a 3 course cookery class - which was out of this world. We made a Ragu and a few different pastas and then a desert. We then went to visit a vineyard in Barolo and did some wine tastings. I would like to thank Julia for such an amazing day that we will not forget. Tina & Harvey …

Julia arranged 3 activities for us: Truffle hunt, wine harvest and wine tasting. All were perfectly coordinated. The activities matched our wishes. The communication with Julia was very good, it was fast, to the point and Julia is a very kind person. Julia helped us out with the planning and the best way to fit them into our holiday. We are very happy with the services, the proposals and the activities themselves. When we come back to Piedmont we will definitely ask Julia to help us again. If you are looking for nice food and wine activities in Piedmont, we would definitely recommend contacting Julia.…

We spent the day with Julia, who was full of expert advice and recommendations for the rest of our stay. The wineries and villages we visited were all excellent: welcoming, different in their approach to tastings and wine making, and all making superb wines to be proud of. Wineries are all very aware of the current Covid precautions and follow them closely. A tour with Julia is a brilliant way to find your feet in this (possibly) overwhelming wine country and will definitely help you make better choices for the rest of your stay.…

Julia organised a full day truffle hunting and wine tour experience for my husband's birthday on our recent trip to Piedmont. We did not know what to expect planning a trip right after the COVID pandemic, but Julia was fabulous to work with - super responsive and even helped us book a last minute (and also great) cooking class when the booking I'd previously made fell through. Matteo was a great guide on our wine tour day and was very knowledgeable. We loved the wine cellar stop in the afternoon, and truffle hunting was a great experience! Will definitely work with Julia and her team when we come back to the region!…
