A week in the Langhe

Giulia Ferri · October 2026

The fog arrives every morning at six and leaves by ten. In between, the Fiori family and a dozen neighbours pick Nebbiolo by hand, one bunch at a time, on slopes so steep you hold on to the vines.

Four generations

Cascina Fiori has made wine here since 1921. Today it is run by Elena Fiori and her two sons, who still use the old wooden vats their great-grandfather built.

“We do not make the wine. We wait for it.” — Elena Fiori
The cellar at Cascina Fiori
The cellar, where the 2026 vintage will rest for four years.

What we brought home

Six new bottles for the list, including a 2016 Barolo Riserva we will open at our Barolo & Barbaresco Night. Come and taste the fog.
