About this experience
Your day is just winding down, the sun's about to set... It's time for an Aperitivo.
It’s the ideal moment when lunch feels too far away, but dinner is still on the horizon—best enjoyed at twilight, when the mountains are bathed in a magical light.
This will be a relaxed and convivial occasion to savor delicious local specialties, paired with a fine glass of wine, a traditional drink, or a Valdostan-inspired cocktail.
All in a casual and informal setting, surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of the Alps.
A perfect experience for those who love good food, great company, and the charm of the mountains!
