About Barbaresco a Tavola

Barbaresco a Tavola is one of the most deeply rooted food and wine events in the Langhe region. Established in 1994, it showcases the latest vintage of Barbaresco DOCG through convivial dinners in local restaurants. In Neive, in the heart of the Cuneo province in Piedmont, four venues offer traditional menus paired with a blind tasting of this great red wine from the Langhe, spread over three evenings in May. It is an event that brings together producers, restaurateurs, and enthusiasts around the village's signature wine.

Barbaresco a Tavola in Neive

Barbaresco a Tavola is the historic event through which the Enoteca Regionale del Barbaresco presents the latest vintage of Barbaresco DOCG each year. Launched in 1994, it is now one of the most beloved wine events in the Langhe, involving restaurants across the denomination's municipalities, including Neive, a stunning hilltop village in the province of Cuneo, in the heart of Piedmont's wine country.

The Concept: Blind Tasting

The heart of the event is the blind tasting of the new Barbaresco DOCG vintage, served during dinner at participating venues. The wines offered are identical in all participating restaurants, providing attendees with an authentic, unbiased comparison. Each chef pairs the glasses with a menu inspired by local cuisine and regional products, showcasing their own creativity.

Neive's Restaurants

In Neive, the initiative involves four pillars of the local gastronomic tradition, each presenting a menu dedicated to the event:

  • Locanda Borgo Vecchio
  • La Torre del Monastero
  • Cantina del Rondò
  • Osteria Le Rocche

Vegetarian alternatives to the menu are available upon request. Reservations must be made directly with each restaurant.

One Territory, One Great Wine

Neive is part, along with Barbaresco, Treiso, and a portion of Alba, of the production area for Barbaresco DOCG, one of the most famous Piedmontese red wines in the world, made from Nebbiolo grapes. The event was created to celebrate the bond between the wine and its land, bringing producers, restaurateurs, and wine lovers together in a convivial atmosphere. Visiting Neive during Barbaresco a Tavola means discovering one of Italy's most beautiful villages, its cellars, and a Langhe cuisine that pairs perfectly with the elegant tannins of Barbaresco.

Forty Years of the Enoteca

This edition is part of the broader calendar of celebrations for the 40th anniversary of the Enoteca Regionale del Barbaresco, founded on July 5, 1986, and now a reference point for almost all producers in the denomination. An anniversary that makes this event, dedicated to the signature wine of the town of Barbaresco and its neighboring villages, even more significant.
