Borgo Sant'Anna

Borgo Sant'Anna, located in the village of Monforte d'Alba, resides in the heart of Italy's Langhe region, surrounded by Nebbiolo vineyards that define its rural setting. Established in 2019 by Executive Chef Pasquale Laera, the restaurant occupies a veranda intimately connected to the rolling hills and wine-growing landscapes. The kitchen reflects Pasquale Laera’s personal culinary journey, blending the flavors of southern Italy with the Langhe’s local ingredients. The menu emphasizes seasonal produce such as green turnips, apples, Jerusalem artichokes, and black cardamom, offering dishes like soused trout, fusilli with broccoli and oysters, and mouflon with vermouth. Traditional Piedmontese techniques meet contemporary creativity in preparations including ravioli of hare in civet and fried red mullet with turnip tops and n’duja. Borgo Sant'Anna holds a Michelin star earned in 2020, underscoring its commitment to quality and culinary innovation within the framework of regional traditions. The restaurant’s cellar, where Nebbiolo ages into Barolo, parallels the kitchen’s dedication to careful evolution and respect for terroir. The venue embodies humility, hard work, and hospitality, inviting guests to immerse themselves fully in the Langhe’s cultural and gastronomic identity.
