Italy - Xander and Jamie visit Piedmont and discover a calmer way of life

For this episode, Jamie and Xander visit Northern Italy - specifically the Piedmont region. Steeped in history and tradition, this area of Italy is famous for its brooding smoky reds, bursting with berries and deep flavours. And you need something robust to cut through this region's famous cuisine, such as Castelmagno, Piedmontese Beef and Salsiccia di Bra. Jamie and Xander discover the pride and simplicity of Italian life; perfect wine, amazing food and beautiful scenery, that heal the soul and let the stresses of modern life drift away.
