Piedmont is Italy’s second-largest region, and one of its most important historically and economically. Piedmont is known for the king and queen of wines, Barolo and Barbaresco, and the diamond of the kitchen, White Truffles. Fall is prime time for foodies who want to savor food and wine at the height of the harvest, and for those who want to experience the famed White Truffle Festival of Alba.

Piedmont is in Italy’s northwest corner, bordering Switzerland and France, and with the regions of Lombardy and Liguria as neighbors on the Italian side. Travelers can fly directly into the Torino airport or Milan airport - Milan Malpensa is a 2-hour drive away.
