Tenuta Barac
About the Winery
Tenuta Barac was established in the 1960s in San Rocco Seno d'Elvio, a small village within the town of Alba, at the heart of the Langhe wine region.
Armando Piazzo and Gemma Veglia, young newlyweds from farming families, decided to honor their heritage by investing in the Langhe's unique land.
The estate features a beautiful farmhouse from the early 20th century, which has undergone extensive historical and architectural renovations to reveal its original materials. Today, it offers cozy settings, warm hospitality, and high-quality services in a tranquil environment. Situated about 250 meters above sea level, Cascina Baràc provides guests with some of the most stunning views in the region. The view over the vine-covered hills of the Langhe is particularly enchanting, offering a truly unique experience in a timeless setting where nature, art, history, elegance, and hospitality seamlessly blend together.

An amazing tour and tasting
Tenuta Barac
Good wines and professional staff.
Afternoon in the vineyard
The wine we liked most during the tasting was the white Arneis, in fact we also bought a case.
The vineyards are very romantic and everything was made wonderful by the colors of the sky at sunset.
Take just one afternoon to go to this fantastic place.
Fascinating

Visit to Tenuta Barac (Alba)
Finally, they had us taste 5 glasses of wine accompanied by a small platter of salami.
Overall the visit was satisfactory, also thanks to the girl who acted as our guide, who turned out to be engaging and good.
