Museo dei cavatappi

Uncorking a bottle is always a magical moment somehow: the eyes of the guests are concentrated on the person doing it. The foil capsule is removed and the corkscrew tip is placed in the middle of the cork. Its collection features 500 corkscrews from all over the world, produced since the second half of the 1600s. Through its 19 sections the museum tells the history, from its birth to its latest evolutions, of a tool that is at the same time humble and rich in history and curiosities.On the doorway to the museum, a beautiful picture of a vineyard, taken by the photographer Bruno Murialdo, welcomes the visitors, who can also admire an array of wines from Barolo’s producers.
