A Taste of Tradition

Truffle Hunting & Local Delights

Every autumn, the vineyards of Piedmont shift their focus from the vines to the forest floor in search of the rare and exquisite white truffle—often called “white gold.”

At Bric del Vento, we offer a truly exclusive and unforgettable truffle hunting experience. Your journey begins just 10 minutes away in Montechiaro d’Asti, where you’ll step into the serene woods, surrounded by the scent of chestnut leaves and hazelnuts. Accompanied by an expert truffle hunter and their trained dog, you’ll uncover the secrets of this age-old tradition, learning about the deep connection between hunter and dog, as well as the delicate techniques used to find these culinary treasures.

The adventure continues back at Bric del Vento, where you’ll indulge in a tasting experience in our scenic dining space overlooking the vineyards and gardens. Enjoy a selection of local delicacies, including raw meats, cured salamis, and cheeses, all perfectly paired with our estate wines.

For those who wish to bring home a piece of this experience, fresh truffles will be available for purchase at exclusive prices.

Choose from a one-day excursion or an extended stay of one or two nights.
