Discover Repergo: Vineyards, Truffles and Trails

Repergo is best explored through its vineyards, culinary experiences and trails through the landscape. At Vigneti Brichet, walks through the vineyards, grape pressing and truffle hunting with a dog and a Trifulau are offered as visitor activities. This allows you to discover different sides of the area: outdoor activity, insights into working with wine and a special form of truffle hunting.

Vineyards and grape harvest at Vigneti Brichet

Vigneti Brichet is located on the sunniest hill of Repergo di Isola d’Asti. Vigneti Brichet claims UNESCO World Heritage recognition for its vineyards in 2014. During a stay focused on winegrowing, the emphasis is therefore on the vineyards themselves and on the activities offered there as visitor experiences.

The “Festa della Vendemmia nei Vigneti Brichet” festival makes it possible to observe the grape-harvesting work up close. This gives visitors a concrete insight into the work carried out during the grape harvest. The focus is therefore not only on the landscape, but also on a work process connected with winegrowing.

A gastronomic wine tour through Repergo

Another way to get to know Repergo is through the gastronomic wine tour around the area. It starts at I Divini, includes tastings of Fassona Piemontese beef at the “L’Isola della Carne” farm butchery and continues to Cantina Tartaglino Alessandro. The stops thus combine wine and regional cuisine within a clearly defined visitor experience.

Barbera d’Asti and Grignolino are considered typical wines of Cantina Tartaglino Alessandro, where they are produced. These two names give the wine tour a specific taste-related focus and make it clear that, alongside the vineyards, the selection of local products also plays a role.

Trails and practical orientation

The trails around Repergo also complement the focus on wine and gastronomy with an active perspective. The “Leggenda di Cavalmorto” trail leads to Borgata Repergo. Maps of the trails around Isola d’Asti show rest areas, fountains, bars, restaurants, accommodation establishments and points of interest. You can compare these different points when planning and better determine your preferred daily rhythm, without assuming a specific itinerary.

Plan Repergo according to your interests

The combination of walks, winegrowing, grape harvesting, truffle hunting and gastronomic stops offers several approaches to planning your trip. If you enjoy spending time outdoors, the vineyards and the trail to Borgata Repergo are the main attractions. If you are more interested in local production, grape pressing, grape-harvesting work and Cantina Tartaglino Alessandro provide specific points of focus. The gastronomic tour adds an emphasis on tastings and Fassona Piemontese beef.

When choosing a hotel or other accommodation in Repergo, you can therefore first consider which of these interests should shape your days. Information about the trails and the marked rest areas, fountains, bars, restaurants, accommodation establishments and points of interest helps you determine the desired combination of landscape, wine and culinary experiences.
