Piedmont's Amazing Diversity - Delafield & Madison Only

Piedmont ranks among the world’s great wine regions — but it is also among the most misunderstood. Mention the name and most wine lovers immediately think of Barolo or Barbaresco, yet those two legendary wines represent only a small part of what this remarkable corner of northwestern Italy has to offer.

Tucked against the Alps and divided by countless hills, valleys, and exposures, Piedmont is a patchwork of unique terroirs and native grape varieties. Nebbiolo may be its aristocrat, but it shares the stage with the juicy charm of Barbera, the bright approachability of Dolcetto, the haunting perfume of Pelaverga, the elegance of Freisa, the freshness of Grignolino, and a host of white varieties including Arneis, Cortese, Timorasso, Erbaluce, and Favorita. Few wine regions in the world can claim such an extraordinary range of styles while remaining so deeply rooted in tradition.

This seminar explores that diversity through the glass. Rather than focusing on a single appellation or grape, we'll travel across Piedmont's varied landscapes to discover how geography, climate, and history have shaped one of Italy's richest collections of wines. From crisp, mineral-driven whites to vibrant everyday reds and profound, cellar-worthy Nebbiolo, each wine reveals a different side of the region's identity.

Whether you've only tasted Barolo or have been exploring Piedmont for years, this seminar offers a rare opportunity to experience the remarkable breadth of a region that continues to reward curiosity. Come discover why so many wine professionals consider Piedmont not simply one of Italy's greatest regions—but one of the most endlessly fascinating wine landscapes anywhere in the world.
