La Ciau del Tornavento

Housed in a typical building dating from 1931 situated amid the Barbaresco hills, this spacious restaurant boasts spectacular views through its floor-to-ceiling windows and – even better – from its terrace. Take the time in between courses to head out on to the terrace, from where you can appreciate magical views which extend as far as the Alps on the clearest days. The cuisine more than equals the beautiful setting, offering an extensive à la carte of meat and fish dishes that range from classic favourites to new creations, in a celebration of the past that is open to modern influences. The wine cellar is legendary – it is of such a high quality that really nothing could be added to improve it – and can be visited on request.
