Lago di Orta to Barbaresco

We enjoyed a beautiful breakfast on the terrace of our hotel, overlooking the lake. We drove windy mountainous roads that made us thankful we didn’t have any passengers in the back seat (cough, Davis and Dawson:) Explored a castle, took a few wrong turns, picked up some groceries and made it to our gorgeous place in the middle of Nebbiolo grapes. Our hosts own and run a winery. We will have a tour and tasting tomorrow with Marco the winemaker. We spent the afternoon swimming in the infinity pool overlooking dramatic castle topped hills filled with vines and hazelnut trees. JD is currently sitting on our terrace drawing, using the kit Dawson bought him for Christmas. We all know what a miracle that is. I’m finishing a book and then we are headed into Alba for dinner and to look into renting E-bikes in the next few days.Baca lagi
