The beautiful history of the Trattoria
della Posta began in 1875 when Sabino Massolino
- the current owner's great-grandfather
- opened a rest and stabling point for travellers
in Monforte d'Alba, in the very heart of
Langhe.
Through the years the restaurant was managed
uninterruptly by Massolino family, becoming
one of the centers of Langhe typical cuisine.
In the Second World War aftermath, another
Sabino - the current owner grandfather -
definitely increased the restaurant's standards
by improving the wine list's quality and
quantity.
In 1985 Sabino and his wife Elvira were
joined in the restaurant's management by
their son Gianfranco.
Gianfranco Massolino, an expert both Italian
and international cuisine as very interested
in food experimentation, gives a turn to
the Trattoria della Posta 's cuisine, by
keeping the local roots steady but aiming
at absolute quality.
In 2000 a countryside house on the hills
becomes the new seat of the restaurant,
which allowed to create an environment that
is both elegant and connected to the traditions
and memories of events and people characterising
the Trattoria della Posta 's first 130 years
of history.
