When we hear talk of Nebbiolo, our memory 'turns' to the Langhe. Barolo and Barbaresco continue to be the most successful appellations on the market and among many critics. Our oenological map of Nebbiolo seems to be restricted to the Langhe, at most we go as far as Valtellina, but hardly, or only as a last resort, do we dwell on that area of northern Piedmont that has been trying to emerge from oblivion for a few years now: Upper Piedmont.

Easter is coming and, if you are reading this blog, you are probably struggling with organising the menu for the big lunch. Whether with family or friends, Easter becomes a time for conviviality where culinary traditions take centre stage. We have selected for you numerous wines, spirits and amari liqueurs that you can enjoy and pair with your favourite dishes.

Even if you have a fresh memory of the last panettone you ate, it's time to start organising your Easter table with chocolate eggs... but not only and doves, all with the unfailing ingredient to make your Easter truly precious: craftsmanship.

Dads have always been celebrated around the world on 19 March, but you know, the most precious gifts are emotions and even just spending time together chatting with chalice in hand will make every father happy... and his children too. But to every dad his own gift and here you will find a small guide for yours but exclusively dedicated to goblet in hand.

Today we at Galli Enoteca, on the occasion of 8 March just around the corner, want to make you want to taste all those wines born of female intelligence and sensitivity. [...] The real change is that today, on their own, without men (either in front or beside them) they are truly successful businesswomen, demonstrating their talent with flying colours.

Love and wine can be considered two sides of the same coin. Both can arouse emotions, sensations, memories. Both can intoxicate, both can make one lose control. There are different factions that, at the time of Valentine's Day, clash. There are those who love this occasion and those, on the other hand, who despise it. But one aspect puts everyone in agreement... A bottle of wine can help to conquer one's beloved, but at the same time, it can heal suffering and love pains.

Our #GlobeTrotterSpiritTour, a journey of exploring all types of distilled spirits, resumes. We have already discovered the characteristics of rum, whiskeys (including delving into the characteristics of European and Asian whiskeys) and vodka.  This time, however, we want to delve into the world of two other spirits, which are sometimes a bit underestimated... We are talking about tequila and mezcal.

Not everyone may know this, but in the Marche region a typical ingredient that describes recognizable aromas, the kind that if you are from the Marche region will make you feel at home, is anisette.  Made from green anise or Pimpinella Anisum, it has a very ancient history and has become one of the Marche's true excellences.

We thought of this guide to help you untangle the difficult world of Christmas gifts. Friend? Boyfriend? Dad or mom? We have the right solution to please everyone.

A small region, a big island, if you count its wonders and riches, it immediately becomes immense! Sardinia is the Italian summer place par excellence, the most beautiful sea in Italy and beyond, almost as if we were on the other side of the world at times. But how much we have to be bewitched by her, apart from the sea for goodness sake, every corner, even the most isolated and remote, is a treasure trove of wonders. Not to mention the food and wine, there is something for everyone.

It has always been part of the Italian tradition to consume so-called Amaro liqueur, in the preparation of cocktails but especially as a "digestif" at the end of a meal. Although, in reality, the digestive function is only partial. Today we want to take you on a journey through the Italian peninsula because, from north to south, the production of Amari liqueur is quite substantial and deep-rooted.

Maybe you are an expert on Marsala or maybe you have only heard about it but you never had the chance to taste it. For a long time, Marsala has always been associated with only one type of wine, a wine for the end of a meal, whereas there are many types of Marsala, each one with its own perfect pairing.

Who among you, in the last period, has not found himself talking and discussing about gin, craft gin, gin tonic at least once? Probably it has already happened to you, because today, this distillate is becoming more and more established in the market, convincing young people and not only…

Piede Franco (ungrafted) and American brain, what do they mean in the world of wine? You may have heard of wines made from free-range vines, but perhaps you haven't yet asked yourself what this means for the vine or the wine itself. First of all, we know that by "piede" we mean the root of the plant and by "franco" we mean free, unique, coherent, without intertwining, in our case without grafting. And why the brain?
