LA TARTUFAIA NEL MONFERRATO (Moncalvo)

My name is Giorgio and would like to invite you to the search and gathering of the white and black truffles in the wonderful Monferrato woods of oaks, poplars, lindens, willow-trees and hazels.

I am a ‘ TRUFFLE GROWER’: with my faithful dog, I can lead you into the
‘ truffle search’ world. We will teach you how to extract it, how to recognize its unique scent, melting your experience into the dawn or into the sunset or, again, into a night walk in the wood.
You will learn how to love these ‘cuisine diamonds’ with a tasting experience .. and if you appreciate, you may also buy them!

Choose your season:

White truffle –autumn/winter
Summer black truffle ‘scorzone’ – spring,. summer, autumn
Winter black truffle ‘brumale’ – autumn/winter
Precious black truffle ‘melanosporum’ – autumn/winter

We accept both individuals and groups up to 12 people

The cost of truffles is based on the market and it is impossible to define it in advance.

Time: almost 2 hrs (the search and the tasting)

(The farm of the ‘Truffle Ground’ is not available on any GPS…you need to get to the Moncalvo railway station with your own vehicle. There Giorgio will be waiting for you!)
