We will be vacationing in Santo Stefano

11/03/2014 - 15:35

We will be vacationing in Santo Stefano Belbo (located between Asti and Alba) in early June, 2015. I am looking for some wineries to visit, preferably smaller ones that still employ traditional wine making techniques. Can anyone suggest a few that might be within a one hour drive from Santo Stefano Belbo?

You'll be in sparkling wine country! You can't miss the Underground Cathedrals, or the old underground wine cellars in Canelli, which is just ten minutes away from Santo Stefano Belbo. Coppo and Contratto are big names, however -- but their underground itineraries are great and they employ traditional wine making methods.Other than that, some other suggestions are: 2 in Santo Stefano Belbo are Marco Capra and Gatti Piero, and about 15 minutes away is the town of Loazzolo and the organic wine producer Forteto della Luja. And, we've marked down quite a few wineries on our winery map, if you find this helpful: Wineries in the Asti and Moscato zone.
