THE HOUSE
At Dai Grésy, the experience kicks off well before you even get there. Blame it on the truly picturesque hills and vineyards of the villages of Dolcetto and Nebbiolo, which you are likely to traverse to reach the new 11-key hotel. As the names of the villages suggest, we are in one of the most spectacular regions of the Langhe and Piedmont – just an hour’s drive south of Turin.
Agriturismo Dai Grésy in Langa is right at the top. Both geographically and in terms of quality. An Eden on earth, designed for a perfect and, above all, relaxing holiday. As you are about to find out, it is a passion project of the Di Grésy family of winegrowers, who have been producing excellent wines since 1973 at Martinenga, main estate of the Tenuta Cisa Asinari dei Marchesi Di Grésy winery, just five minutes away.
Dai Grésy is mainly run by Ludovica di Grésy and her brother Alessandro. They welcome guests in the family’s old farmhouse. Halfway between a farmhouse and a charming new guest house, Dai Grésy epitomizes the special ambience of the surroundings. The atmosphere is relaxed, the service attentive, the design contemporary, the view spectacular: vineyards and fields as far as the eye can see.
The small village of Treiso lies in front of the hotel, but the view extends as far as Monferrato and, on clear days, even further to the Cottian Alps and Monviso. You are in good hands with the hotel’s own concierge service, they will go the extra mile to help you explore the area: Take your pick, from romantic Osterie, simple inns, Michelin-starred restaurants, prominent wineries to the famous Piedmont truffle, the star of the region from October to January. During this time, you should take part in an organized truffle hunt, accompanied by a local expert – afterwards, a table is reserved in a restaurant to taste it.

THE ROOMS
Dai Grésy was renovated by the architect Elena Bellincioni (Ludovica and Alessandro’s cousin), while the garden was designed by Axel Boerr (Ludovica’s fiancé). The house has nine rooms and two holiday flats with a kitchen and a living room. All rooms are built from natural materials and reclaimed wood, old family furniture mixed with contemporary pieces make for an eclectic design. Each room is different, each room is enriched from time to time with private trouvailles.
Wellness
The saltwater pool feels endless and offers truly breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. There is also a wellness area, which is a real plus, especially during the colder months. There is a large covered whirlpool, a Turkish steam bath and a sauna with a relaxation room. A big plus for us: both the house and the garden have been renovated according to sustainable principles. There is no more plastic on the grounds, the water and energy are ecologically regulated in an exemplary manner.
FOOD
Whenever possible, fruit and vegetables for meals come from their own garden, which is cultivated according to the philosophy of permaculture. Dai Grésy is an agritourismo and selects the best local produce with great passion. Breakfast is a delicious feast where everything is handmade and every ingredient comes from a local producer. In addition to the basket of bread and focaccia, you can also order dishes à la carte. For example, we had Eggs Benedict and homemade muesli.
Dinner follows the same principles and is reserved for Dai Grésy guests only. The atmosphere is all the more intimate and personal. The menu is based on the seasons, the vegetables come from the garden and there are always two traditional dishes, such as plin (typical Piedmontese ravioli) and vitello tonnato. The dishes are of course accompanied by wines from the family estate. Tastings and tours are also organized.
