A Piedmont-inspired immersion into alpine richness, truffles, gianduja, and deep winter indulgence.
About this Event

Step into the elegance of Piedmont — a region defined by alpine richness, hazelnuts, deep winter wines, truffles, and some of the most expressive cheeses in Italy. In this immersive class, we explore Turin’s cold-weather food culture through a guided cheese tasting, a curated Italian wine flight, and a selection of small bites inspired by the region’s luxurious winter traditions.

We’ll touch on the legacy of gianduja, the quiet decadence of Piedmontese chocolate, the magic of local milk, and the deep comfort that defines Turin’s cuisine. Expect cozy sophistication, subtle truffle aroma, Northern Italian warmth, and plenty of dairy.

Each Global Winter Series class includes:

  • A guided wine flight;
  • Four paired small bites featuring regional cheeses, accoutrements, and familiar winter snacks;
  • A rich, educational tour of the city’s culinary traditions led through immersive storytelling from our Wedgewood cheese and wine experts;
  • A take-home guide that blends recipes, cultural context, and historical influences; and
  • Access to limited and seasonal wine and cheese selections curated specifically for that winter destination.
