It is the new Torino Olympic Palasport (Sports Arena) designed by the Japanese architect Arata Isozaki for the Winter Olympics in Torino 2006. A multi-functional space, versatile and flexible which, thanks to the mobility of its platform, can turn from an ice rink into a concert, show, or convention venue.

Joanne Harris

"The Langhe countryside is breathtakingly beautiful - it’s enough on its own, but what has truly struck me is the sense of community and the respect and love that grape-growers have for the land and for the wine they create."

Raffaele La Capria

“The Langhe landscape is stunning. I am a man of the sea and looking at these hills reminds me of a very rough, live and vibrant green sea. But there is another aspect that impresses me, the order of the vineyards. It’s a geometric order in which man’s care and love can be seen along with the fact that the vineyards are a resource closely tied to the roots of mankind.”

Emanuele Severino

“Piemonte is a land of excellent cuisine and extraordinary wines. I was deeply impressed by the Langhe landscape. To admire these hills makes you immediately understand the importance that the landscape held for a writer like Cesare Pavese or Beppe Fenoglio. In these past days, I think I felt the same sensations that Pavese did when he came into contact with his hills.”
