Wineries often offer the possibility of organizing special events, such as a dinner amidst the rows of vines in the Monferrato, to enjoy an intimate and typical atmosphere. The price of a tasting in Alba is variable and depends mainly on the presence of a lunch, dinner or aperitif box: in fact, it ranges between €25 and €50 per person.
