Alba

Alba lies along the Tanaro River, where the vine-covered Langhe hills meet the edge of the Po Valley plain. The town is a focal point for the renowned wine country that produces Barolo and Barbaresco, both made from Nebbiolo grapes. Alba is equally associated with the white truffle: each autumn, its International Alba White Truffle Fair brings markets, tastings and culinary events to the historic centre. Its Roman past survives in the street plan and archaeological remains, while the Cathedral of San Lorenzo anchors the old town.
