The Consortium distilleries that join are 11, distributed on the hills of the different Piedmont areas, and all are ready to welcome the public by applying the caution measures relating to Covid-19 that visitors must comply with. Guided tours of the plants and tastings of the many products that represent this Piedmont sector will be offered, linked to the tradition of the different territories and different grape varieties, often served in combination with confectionery products or other specialties.
