Alba, home of the truffle, precious treasure

By: Giulia Di Felice

Alba, the town of Tartufo, in the Piedmontese Langhe. As we can easily imagine, it is not just truffles. Many natural and historical beauties meet in its territory and form the perfect place to go in search of something precious.

Immersed in the picturesque frame of the Langhe, on the right of the Tanaro river, we find Alba, a little jewel from Northern Italy that we all know as the town of white truffle. Set in an enchanting area that in 2014 was added among UNESCO world heritage sites, Alba rises in a plain area and is surrounded by fields filled with vineyards.
