Introduction

16 Sep 2026 - 26 Sep 2026

Dear Friends,

I am delighted to invite you to join me on an exceptional journey to Piedmont, Italy, crafted especially for discerning travellers who value extraordinary food, great wine, and the pleasure of good company.

Set against the refined landscapes of northern Italy, this immersive experience will celebrate world-class Barolo and Barbaresco wines, seasonal Piedmontese cuisine, and unforgettable meals enjoyed in elegant, luxurious settings. Guided by my deep knowledge and passion, each day will be rich with flavour, conversation, and discovery—balanced with time to relax, indulge, and simply enjoy the fine art of living well.

This is more than a tour; it is a sophisticated celebration of taste, culture, and fun, shared with fellow lovers of fine food and wine.

We would be honoured to have you join us for this unforgettable Piedmont experience.

Warm regards,

Chef Michael Howell
