There are many appointments that enrich the events calendar every year, but one that has particularly aroused our interest is undoubtedly the 2023 edition of the GranTour Piemonte. It is a driving tour aiming to discover the pleasures and excellence of Made in Italy between the provinces of Biella and Cuneo, through the enhancement of local companies and a food and wine heritage that represents the quintessence of being together with people who share a great passion for cars and who can’t wait to drive along these roads full of charm and magic.
