Piedmont
Piemonte in tavola
There is nothing like Piedmont in the autumn. A dense fog blankets the mighty vineyards and the aroma of white truffles and creamy pastas fill the air.
Camillo Benso Conte di Cavour
Cavour, the great unifier of Italy, began his career as a young student at the Military Academy. At some point, he decided that the soldier’s life, even a high-ranking soldier, was not for him. He dedicated himself to family affairs and managing a couple of estates that his father had given him.
