A cool wine bar in the heart of Barolo – Enoteca La Vite Turchese

Day 41: October 12, 2023

Wine Bar: Enoteca La Vite Turchese, Alba, Piemonte, Italy

I took a break from Puglia and traveled north to Piemonte for a weekend to experience the wine country there.  One of the wineries I visited in Barolo recommended that I go this wine bar to taste a wide variety of excellent Barolo (and Barbaresco) wines.  Unfortunately, by the time I arrived, it was too late to do a full-scale tasting.  However, I did manage to taste 4 excellent wines, two Barbaresco and two Barolo.

Here are the wines I tasted:

  • 2020 La Ca’ Nova – Barbaresco Montestefano DOCG
  • 2016 Ugo Lequio – Barbaresco “Gallina” DOCG
  • 2019 Chionetti – Barolo Bussia Vigna Pianpolvere DOCG
  • 2019 Luigi Pira – Barolo “Marenca” DOCG
