Via Pesio, 43, Corneliano d'Alba

Corneliano d'Alba sits in the Roero hills, with a landscape of vine-covered ridges, orchards and small wooded sections between the Tanaro plain and the first Langhe hills. The Tanaro river runs nearby below Alba. The nearest town of size is Alba, which has a substantial historic centre, rail links, services and the white truffle fair for which it is known. Bra is also close, with a larger town centre and services. This is wine country, known for Roero wines and for the wider food-and-wine culture shared with Alba and the Langhe.
