Signed by the Riserva Grande agency, Nebbiolo nel cuore brings together enthusiasts, wine-lovers, wine-addicts and operators in the sector.
Nebbiolo nel cuore is an initiative that allows the visitor not only to taste the wine expressed in its many and fascinating typologies.

Theater: “Sesto Potere” at the Ambra Jovinelli
“Sesto Potere“, the new pièce by Davide Sacco with Francesco Montanari, Cristiano Caccamo, Nina Torresi and Matteo Cecchi, will continue until January 21st.
After the fourth estate of the press and the fifth estate of television there is therefore a sixth estate.
This is much more subtle, much more base.
It slips between smartphones, into Facebook notifications, and into Instagram stories.
An invisible power, just as the one who commands it is always invisible and it is always unknown why he does it.
A danger in our hands, a continuous brainwashing.
A power that none of us can escape.
A social, viral manipulation that occurs at the hands (or words) of social networks.
A dense network of information that keeps us constantly connected and stimulated by a force that acts on our minds and exercises a power the true extent of which is unknown.
Sacco‘s work investigates this. And even more the emptiness of these worlds.
Tickets for Ambra Jovinelli Theater are available HERE.
Children: Casina di Raffaello’s activities
At the Casina di Raffaello girls and boys will be able to have fun and learn with many fun-educational workshops until January 28th,
Every Saturday and Sunday adults with their younger children, aged 2 to 4, will be able to play together modeling clay to create lots of biscuits.
Or they can draw with colored markers and stamps.
Even girls and boys aged 4 to 6 will be able to have fun creating beautiful decorations with clay and colours, or one of the “malfatti” from Beatrice Alemagna‘s stories.
Girls and boys aged 6 to 11 will be able to have fun building their own miniature winter village.
Or to create a story that can continually change by overlapping and breaking down transparent funds.
The booking for the activities and the related online payment are mandatory by calling the call center 060608 (open every day 9am-7pm).
The cost of each workshop is 7 euros per child.
