Winery tours around Alba

Staying in Alba this July and looking to visit one of the many wineries in the area. I see many to chose from and recognize some names but have no idea about their tours, tasting, atmosphere. Does anyone out there have positive experiences they want to share? Looking for something within 20 k of Alba.

We are spending two weeks in this area next month. I have found this website to be extremely helpful in finding food, lodging, wineries, etc. http://www.travellanghe.com/index.html

We are taking a day tour of Barolo wines with Anna of https://www.italianna.com She picks you up at your hotel and takes you out to wineries for the day. We felt that was the best option for us so that we can enjoy the wine and not worry about driving.

We had a wonderful visit at Pietro Rinaldi Winery, a boutique winery in Madonna di Como just a few kilometers from Alba. Beautiful setting, family owned. Great hospitality plus excellent wines. We bought quite a few bottles/ Arneis, Dolcetto, Nebbiolo, Barbara.
We emailed them to arrange a private visit. The owners are Paolo and Monica Tenino; her grandfather started the winery and they have restored it. Beautiful. Highly recommend.
