Private, Tailored Wine & Food Tours
Taste my range of wines and enjoy amazing visits to artisanal wine & food producers in the most beautiful region in Italy.
If you are dreaming of that unforgettable Italian trip, PiemonteMio can turn your dream into reality…Piemonte (and, indeed PiemonteMio) has wine – among the greatest in the world – food, culture, architecture, sports, scenery, design & history to rival any in Italy. To visit the places the locals go, you need someone who lives and breathes the region: someone who will show you places others don’t know about. Someone like me…I can help you to discover the best of the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato in this jewel of north-western Italy. So what are you waiting for?
Come with PiemonteMio for the experience of a lifetime…
Welcome to PiemonteMio – My Piemonte…
Discover PiemonteMio
Nowhere in Italy can offer as much as Piemonte when it comes to what’s on your plate and in your glass. The wines are the most interesting in the land and the cuisine, courtesy of the Savoyard Empire, is a sublime blend of French and Italian.
The glories of Italian regional larders are overwhelmingly to be found in small, family-owned producers, and Piemonte is no exception. People making authentic wines or foods deeply rooted in the area, and restaurants making traditional dishes from locally-sourced ingredients.
The wines are easily accessible, the food wonderfully seasonal and crowned with the glorious White Truffle.
I have information on how to get here, as well as where to eat, drink and sleep when you arrive.
Come with me and experience the Piemonte that the locals know…
“I came to Piemonte to work one grape harvest. That was over 20 years ago…”
Of course, food & wine are what most visitors to the Langhe, Roero and Monferrato come for, but Piemonte has much more to offer than just that: from Olympic ski and winter sports resorts, through wonderful Alpine hiking, to Italy’s first capital city, Turin – home to some of the best museums, art, architecture, and the best automotive design in the world. To say nothing of the café culture and fashion shopping…
BLOG
Yule Blog…
...and so will I... I'm sorry, I'm so sorry. I need help. Professional help. In the meantime, I thought I would do a final little blog post for the first year of PiemonteMio and Byrne Vini. And what a year it's been: what a time to be launching new...
Harvest Festival…
The harvest may have finished this year, but I hope this post is a little more relevant than the Anglo Saxon Chronicles…As ever here, if it's in yellow, click on it - you might like it. 2020 has been a good year for the vineyards here in Piemonte – without doubt there...
Push for the Byrne
Well, here we are again. I have recently had another article published in The Local Italy – this time about what assistance there has been for wine producers here in Italy due to the Corona virus pandemic and what the situation is for producers in Piemonte. I...
Spot the difference…
Since my last blog post – improbably over a month ago now - I have finally managed to establish Byrne Vini. This is my acorn-sized wine-making project. In fact, we bottled 600 bottles (plus a few extras for tasting samples and possibly one or two to drink)...
Pumices, pumices…
Count yourselves lucky - I was working on some worse titles than that. Etna Mountain High Enough, for example. Anyway, now that we are again allowed to foregather, I started to think about when the last time was that there was a group of us here at home. ...
Bridges in the Sky
Well, that's just great, isn't it? I got all ready, and did a blog post about the introduction of 'air bridges' between the UK and other countries - I've been hearing about them, seeing them in the media: set to be confirmed on Wednesday 1st July, then Friday...
