The Alba White Truffle World Market is the place to buy magnificent specimens of Tuber magnatum Pico carefully selected by Alba White Truffle Sensory Analysis judges trained by the National Truffle Study Center.

Inside the Cortile della Maddalena, in Alba’s historic center, the Alba White Truffle World Market will be set up with an elegant open-air installation spanning over 2,000 square meters, ensuring adequate distancing while offering accessibility even in inclement weather.

Here you can purchase truffles directly from the Trifulao, the local truffle hunters, who sell fresh product every morning selected by the Truffle Judges of the Quality Commission trained by the National Truffle Study Center.

Alongside the Trifulao, the best local food products and fine wines from Langhe, Monferrato and Roero will be available for purchase.

Open every Saturday and Sunday through December 6 (inclusive).
