The DNA: Located in Asti, the Piemontese town known for its spumante, Barbera – and less know Ruchè wines – is Donna Elena Epoque Residence. It has only two romantic, boho-chic style rooms: think vintage panel doors, iron beds, bits of flowery wallpaper and cosy cushions. The owner will guide you to Asti’s secrets: wine tastings and culinary experiences.
