Day Sixteen: Farmers' Market in Monforte d'Alba

In the Langhe area of Piedmont where we are staying, there is a farmers' market in the area everyday. This morning we went to Monforte d'Alba where we bought a lot of luscious fruit (peaches, apricots, and pluots) and garlic and potatoes to fill tonight's raviolis. Brad got to talking about wine with the proprietor of a small bodega and ended up buying one bottle of each kind they make. Here is the village and some views of the surrounding vineyards:
